Cross reference of Tech Manual Tools

Yeah I get it... my take is that I'm too old and impatient to do the right thing with the wrong tool any longer if I can help it. Not that I'm going to go find every obscure 1960s tool :lol:

I do have issues since I spent so long as a military radio tech that following repair instructions went way easier with the right tool....(the set being inventoried routinely) :realcrazy: so there's that crazy

Another bit is just curiosity. The BFH code meant something to someone at some point in history.

I agree the right tool does make things easier but having made a living fixing cars till I got smart & found a new way to make a living I have found you never have the right tool... No matter how many you buy...

My time in the military there were plenty of tools that didn't exist, the vessel I was on was commissioned in 1943 so 30 years later special tools were long since gone and down time while trying to source obscure stuff wasn't an accepted response when your Commander sez jump...
