Default I bought a large capacitance hat for my vertical, but the antenna still gets wet when it rains.

The problem with this joke is that the wrench exhists. Handedness in a
wrench is determined by which thumb closes the jaws. Right thumb right
hand wrench, left thumb left handed wrench.

I have a left handed crescent type wrench. Where was it made?
POLAND of course.

Wrench available for inspection.


You had me going there for a moment.....

I know...one side is labeled L and the flip side is labeled R.

No. This is an honest to god left handed crescent style wrench. Hold in
left hand and close the jaws using the left thumb.

nuts & bolts.

Yeah, and I've had these two left handed pipe wrenches around for
years. This southpaw found them indispensable on galvanized, but can't
seem to get them to work on copper pipe.
