The Man Who Couldn't Cleco
"LP" wrote in message .net... wrote in message oups.com... I'm willing to wager that you were never in the Navy. I know Bob was & I have heard other Navy guys call them forceps. Different lingo in different circles. Given theat the tool isn't used to ply anything, forceps might even be a more accurate term. Sorry that the world doesn't conform to your expectations. Daniel If someone at work ask to borrow my forceps, he or she would get a deer in the headlight look. However, third drawer down on the right is my CLECO pliers. Oh yeah, 23 years in the NAVY. That is interesting. The "Aircraft Tool Control Manual - Navy and Marine Corps" states that the C-40A AF Sheet Metal Roll-Away Tool box 5120 contains a "Forcepts, Sheet Metal, Holding, Cleco."
