This is a rather useless post but I thought it would be fun to bring up. My wife and I were watching "Temple Grandin" on HBO the other day, and in the movie the main character, an autistic girl, uses several hand tools to build some contraptions. The first sighting was a millers falls No. 77A hand drill, the second a Millers Falls No. 2 that was missing its 'little rail-road car wheel" and the last I found was a hand saw that looked like it had impulse hardened teeth which seem a little too modern for the 1960s setting. Its a pretty good movie nonetheless.

great movie. Claire Daines should get a statue of some sort for her role in it.

I really wanted to see that. I've heard several interviews with her. Alas, no HBO for me.
