Opened by Nabisco in 1956, This plant was a well known landmark in Northeast Philadelphia. It's nine story tower loomed over Roosevelt Boulevard and the small of cookies and chocolate wafted over the neighborhood day and night. Inside, about 700 workers manned eight ovens in three shifts allowing such familiar product names such as Oreo and Teddy Grahams to be baked nonstop.
After Phillip Morris bought out Nabisco in December 2000, the company operated this plant under its Kraft foods subsidiary. When Kraft spun off it's snack business in 2012, the resulting company-Mondelēz-continued operating the facility.
On Thursday September 12, 2010, the bakery became the latest scene of workplace violence when a disgruntled worker <a href="http://6abc.com/archive/7659454/"killed two and wounded another after being suspended from her job.
May 1st, 2015 was the last day of operation for the Philadelphia baker as Mondelēz claimed they wanted to consolidate jobs at newer facilities in New Jersey and Virginia. Union officials however <a href="https://www.phillymag.com/business/2015/07/10/boyle-oreo-mondolez/"suspected operations were being outsourced to Mexico.
Mondelēz <a href="https://www.phillymag.com/city/2016/01/29/nabisco-factory-to-be-sold-tower-to-be-demolished/"sold the property to a developer who has plans to build a retail center on the site, with one portion of the sprawling factory being reused as a distribution center.

I made this cake for my friend's dad, who is a carpenter. This is a marble cake with vanilla buttercream and fondant decorations.

Amongst tools the monkey wrench is the lowest of the low; a bodger's tool - I count myself in their number.
Recently, everything I own seems to need some repair or other. It's getting so I just can't keep up. My processions are starting to own me.
Taken at Thak Ironworks in Flordale, Ontario. Works of modern blacksmithing, medieval armour and sculpture.
Heavy weight denim tool belt with velcro loop, elastic hammer loop, and pouch. Hammer, screwdriver, wrench, and saw made from vintage & thrifted denim and corduroy.
This is one of my recent measurement tool repair projects. I've got this piece from eBay in partially functioning condition. I was unable to find the actual manufacturing date, but the latest date of a patent listed on a package goes back to 1935. This makes me believe that it was made by still existing B.C. Ames Co. sometime right before the Second World War. It has 0.0001″ resolution and 5-0-5 large (⌀ 3.5″ or 89mm) bidirectional dial. Both graduation and text were not screen-printed but written (probably, using a pantograph copying tool).
This tool is now perfectly functional and quite accurate even after almost 90 years.
To bring it back to life, I had to:
- disassemble it and clean some moving parts,
- realign hand shaft to make it perpendicular to the face plane,
- restore black oxide finish on a hand tip,
- size, fit and replace the dome (I used a glass from some old alarm clock rather than a celluloid dome that has been used originally because I didn't find a good replacement).

At this month's Open MAKE: Tools event, visitors were invited to explore their own creativity with our four Featured Makers from around the Bay Area, who shared their art, ingenuity, and techniques.
Guests made needle-felted creatures with Moxie, created three-dimensional shapes by sewing sheets of fabric together with Judy Castro, fused plastic with clothes irons, used sewing needles and conductive thread to make circuits embedded in bracelets and badges, and used motors and other tools to take Light Painting to a whole new level.

The datecode 9 doesn't match with any 9 on the date charts. Maybe it's 1969, maybe it's not a datecode at all.
