Hungry Ratchet

Boulder, CO

I called this 'Hungry Ratchet' because it reminds me of a baby bird with its mouth open crying for food. This ratchet clearly wants to bolt down a nut (maybe one from Lydia's tractor).

Alastair, I have to admit to stealing My Beloved's ratchet and not returning it. I'm very attached to the ease of power in a ratchet wrench. :) ~Lydia

Thanks Lydia. I don't know about this being a 'guy tool', but my wife always forgets that we have it. She's struggling mightily with a wrench, and I produce this nifty thing and whip off the nuts in no time! Alastair

Lovely colors, Alastair! (Is it allowed to say this about a guy tool??) The textures all combined make for a very interesting image. ~Lydia
