What is that thing?
10mm socket, commonly known by mechanics to be the single most lost tool on the planet. Most cars use them a lot, but they’re always nowhere to be found
I’ve been wondering why I’ve been having issues with missing 10mm’s lately.
It is a zip tie, frequently used to attach two things although in most cases it is pulled tightly and this is a rare case of it being used as a simple loop.
A meme for that weird cross section of LOTR and auto mechanics. Beautiful.
How would losing the ring save middle earth? Sauron would have won if the ring wasn’t destroyed.
Am I missing something about the zip tie shown here? Those things are pretty easy to cut open, easily defeating this lock or w/e.
It’s not about locking it.
Mechanics will always misplace a 10mm socket head so the joke is attach the ring to the socket and now the ring will never be found.
Oh I guess I misread the other comments, I assumed they were talking about a wrench or something to use on the socket rather than the socket thing itself
I dont do tools, or work on cars or anything, but I literally just bought a $20 rachet set with like 50+ pieces, and the one time I use it on my car to remove the battery, I lose the 10mm… I didn’t realize this was so common. I must have spent like an hour in the parking lot looking for it and felt a fool for losing it. This isn’t so much humorous as it is vindication! I am not a fool! Or atleast, we all are.
A single sock would work as well.
Gollum chewed off the zip tie.
