ahahahahaa, the mickey mouse award

there is a tool for every job, vise grips have their place

 

Vise Grips are the tool you use when you screwed up trying to use the right tool and nothing else works. Though there are times when they are nice to have, but I try to avoid using them like the plague, it'sa good way to make things worse sometimes

 

i dont get it. whats so bad about vise grips?

 

nothing if they are used for their intended purpose
