Most of my adult life, I have carried a pair of pliers, and a pocket knife. Usually a Shrade Rancher, with 3 blades. I have had a pair of pliers fall out of my suit jacket pocket, at church, and that was noisy, also I had the wife to contend with, for embassing us that way! I now carry a leatherman in a belt pouch, NOT AS HANDY AS THE OLD FARMERS PLIERS in the back pocket. The last 2 years, I cant get enough light to see well, on important things, like small cracks in metal, or broken wires in wire rope, which is why I retired from my Boeing job, as a overhead crane tech. Never did tell Boeing about it, didn't want them to freak out, and bring in outside vendors, to go over all the equipment, I had worked on. I always had another younger tech, that I could trust, double check things for me. It pays off to bring a youngster along, and teach him the trade. I never worried about him taking my job, like some guys used to warn me about.Anyway, I found that if I used a stylus led flashlight, that I could still see small stuff. It is about the size of a ballpoint pen, and carries in my shirt pocket, so I always have it with me. Even retired and at home, I still need it along, like to see to adjust chainsaw carbs,or anything small or in shaded areas. I just wondered if that is unique to me?, or does other folks have a light problem? My Glasses have been updated several times, but the problem never goes away.
