Drama on a 24 hour rally. No one died.
Progress is fine, but it's gone on for too long.
with apologies to Ogden Nash...

Qualikraft wrench
Quali-kraft was a Japanese made tool brand made for the North American department store trade, the wrench looks and feels like a quality item. I'm not sure about the odd-shaped jaw cutouts, it looks like they are trying to contact the flats of the nut instead of the corners, and also a feature to "ratchet" the wrench on the nut. And it's "patent pending".

Hesketh wrench
These wouldn't turn up very often! Unless it was a part of the toolkit of the low mileage Hesketh you bought... Thanks, Derek!

One of my vices is vises, a broken one
Seen on Marketplace. Rather disappointing for something that doesn't look very old or misused... I expect this is shoddy material rather than misuse?
NR750 cutaway
The oval piston street bike. Surely, one of the most exotic production vehicles of all time. Honda made 300 and I bet very few were ever ridden more than a few miles. Said to be the inspiration for the styling of the Ducati 916.
