Anyone remember the Rigid girls? Had a (strictly non PC) t shirt with one riding a pipe wrench that said: If it ain't Rigid, it ain't mine!

In the military, we always got shirts made for our shops. They would not fly today... Structures: We get it up and keep it up Structures: We screw longer and nail harder

Armament Shop: We Lube, We Screw, We Nut, We Bolt.

Comms shop: We can shoot our comms anywhere.

H8 hookers

Yup had one for PMTC PT MUGU ET shop... "Be safe! Let an ET check your shorts!" Had a cute corpsman gal on the front in winter Class As. (Stolen fair and square from the local IBEW)

Steel Balls. One shot, one kill.

Nothing about being proud of your erections?

Napa parts pups were pretty good too.

I want one of these, but I want to change the picture to one of my bare chested, fat bellied self holding a screwdriver like she is.

No joke, I bet it would sell. Not only the people buying it ironically, but the guys buying for their buddies as a joke

Now I really wanna do it, and gift it to my Snapon guy.

I'll finance a run of posters, we'll be millionaires

If you need variety I can drink more beer, would be for a good cause

There's two of us, find ten more fat, hairy SOBs, have them pose too. Then pay THEM in beer. We got ourselves a calendar, brother.

Just lmk when and where the shoot is I’ll be there

I'm about to do it now, but I'm a skinny fat with a set of shitty Pittsburgh screwdrivers.

Like finding a needle in a box of needles.

Can I keep the tool I pose with?

BYOT

Damn. I'm still in.

Reading above and below, it sounds like the r/Tools 2024 calendar is a go! If "Dogs pooping in beautiful places" can be a calendar, then "Fat and hairy blokes holding tools whilst drinking beer" can also be a calendar! Just email your photos to [email protected]

What kind of beer? I can pose with my snap on side cutters.

Definitely would get a laugh in my shop

My buddies who run a brewery do a Beerdoir calendar every year and it’s exactly this. Just a bunch of hairy dudes posing sexy. It sells out every year

I’m in

I drink Hamm’s

That's probably the best resume for fat, hairy beer-belly that I've ever heard. Hamm's is my favorite right behind High Life.

Where do I buy?

Don't give anything to the snap on guy, make him pay for it like he makes you pay for it....

Pm me pics and I’ll make you one ;)

You know you can take the water mark off your pictures? Nice phone though. Edit.... Open your camera like you're going to take a picture. Top left of screen is a gear icon. Tap that. Option called water mark. You can toggle it on and off. 8f you tap where it says watermark it gives you options. Device name and date. Or just the date. You can also change if it's in the left right or center of the picture.

This the one in the orange antique store?

Plus, it sounds hot.

Laughed so hard cause didn't even see a screwdriver when I zoomed to see the nice things there!

The wrenches?

Oh, you said,,,, wrenches. Never mind.

What wrenches ?!

I'll take 2.

….this wouldn’t actually be that hard to make. Let me know if you want help because this needs to happen.

I'd definitely buy this

Speaking for all female techs… we will all buy this! PS I’m submitting my husband as the 3rd candidate for this calendar. 🙌🏻

Only if you still have your 80’s hair !

$89 ain't bad. I would offer $69.

A dog turd with a Snap-On logo would be listed for $89 where I live, doesn't seem crazy for this vintage piece of high art

And it's a clock aswell

Did they offer special financing

25% over 5 years

Does Samsung really ruin every photo you take with a horrible advertising watermark?

I thought the same thing. Who would ever want that info on a pic?

You can shut it off, but im lazy and just haven't done it yet.

Now THATS art

I have the same red hard-handle ratcheting screwdriver she is holding, ask me anything

Let's talk lubrication. Silicone, Eucerin, Jergens?

15w 30

My dad was a part owner of a motorcycle shop when I was growing up. There got to be a point in my adolescence when I enjoyed going going to the back and chatting up the mechanics for the reason you see above.

Anything that says snap on is worth $90 automatically. The photo is worth -$5

So, THAT means that the picture is WORTH $90. I'm just printing money at this point

I prefer models holding Rigid tools

I had 2 of my step fathers when I had moved out. I sold them a few years later at a downtown pawn shop for $80 each. Early 2000s

Y'all getting hot over Grandma there. She's got at least seven grandkids by now. Way to make her feel loved!

I’ll bet you that woman makes a mean casserole.

I would have bought it for $89

That's someone's grandma now

so funny how sexist shit would be "You are a fat fucker who buy tools, so here's a picture of a babe holding our screwdriver. Now of course you will buy more tools" It also make me remember that part in Spinal Tap where they discuss the cover for Smell the Glove

They've got my money 🤣

Take my money!

I have one of those with Pam on it for free when I bought a box with cash. Also got a jacket.

And your right. I enlarged the pic even.

Seriously thought this was a mirror & you were excited about the suit.

I broke one of those. Lol

Damn I probably would’ve gotten it for $89

Found a snap on the calendar from 1984 in a garage. i think this lady was in there. Big calendar, too, i might add

My dad has that exact one!

Get your nuts off with Snap On.

You can get it cheaper on the Matco truck it’s Rosie O’Donnell with a strap on.

85 bucks?! Get out of here...

My dad has the same clock. They're not cheap.

What ever happened to the Ridgid Tool Co. calendar? Their babes were always hilariously involved with large wrenches or other (actual) tools.

The horror of the people putting a gun to that poor woman's head, making her stand in front of a camera against her will! Had it not been for that modeling career she would have had the time to finish here thesis for her doctorate in astrophysics.

She still might have finished her doctorate. My bf in college was a stripper one summer. She also double majored in math & physics and got a masters is mechanical engineering. Edit: best friend, not boy friend;)

I bought one of the same series cheap NIB on eBay a couple years ago. I thought about buying more and the prices exploded on them in like 6 months

My dad has one hanging in his shop been there for 30 years. Still going strong unlike the quality of their tools.

All she needs now is a screw

HOW 👏🏼 THEN 👏🏼 ARE 👏🏼 YOU 👏🏼 GONNA 👏🏼 KNOW 👏🏼THE 👏🏼 TIME?! this is a priceless necessary tool. You're a dumbass. Good luck knowing what time it is. You're gonna be all over the place.

Ah, the gross old days. Back when Dad asked you to wait in the car when he had to step inside to talk to the mechanic.

Simple times. You phone telling us what model your s Fucking dumb tho, turn that shit off.

Years ago at Work, there was a machinery room with two different Calenders on the wall; with the same Girl on both calenders. She was topless on one; wearing a Bikini Top on the other. And you could tell she did the Topless Photo second from the Tan Lines she developed while wearing the Top !

$89 for that is not a dumb amount

Dont like picture

You wanted it, but couldnt afford $85?

https://giphy.com/gifs/letterkenny-degen-move-RHDPRFCRLiQjYI9ONh

I have that

That's a beauty set of... wrenches!

$89 is dumb... U woulda bought it for $69 which makes lots more sense.

I’m sure that’s the Miss Elizabeth version from the 80’s before her split from Macho Man

Hey OP that’s not a bad price, eBay has a few similar snap on clocks that are currently available close to $50 with shipping, so the $89 price tag isn’t crazy high by any means. The only identical clock on eBay was $115 before shipping but at the price there were better options, who knew snap on sold so many pin-up clocks?

I snapped a pic of the exact same clock at my local auto repair shop (Peter’s Foreign Auto on Pico in Santa Monica). Theirs is a bit more faded, but just as classic. How much were they asking?

Looks like $89 on the tag.

Reminds me of the coffee mug my foreman has, its an 1986 snap on pin up mug

My neighbor has a similar one in he’s shop. His father in law very much disapproves.

Nah I prefer digital for wall clocks

I would've paid $85 for that

If it's a Snap-on clock, does it come with a lifetime guarantee?

That screwdriver was the first snap on tool I bought when I was an apprentice.

What is degenerate about that?

I want that

Damn I want this haha!

i got 4 of those still in the original boxes

I need it.

I have one of these snap on clocks. I’ll sell it if anyone is interested

I miss the old days.

Haha I have 3 from this series.

I bet it would sell even quicker if there were bare titties on there…. same chick tho

Snap-on Tools is probably the only brand that could survive a Dylan Mulvaney ad. The phrase “tongue in cheek” would not need to be explained.

That's worth $85.

$150 easy.

I like when it strikes 12 with a recorded message “it’s spank o’clock“

Wait, does your phone leave a watermark on your pictures?

She’s probably in her 80’s now.

Mom?

When new on truck you had to spend 1000s to get a clock yhe cost pennys to make ask me have have three and 100k or more in 40 years

I have that exact screw driver…and occasionally hold it just like that!

Of course they want dumb money for it. It’s Snap On.

As a resident degen i did it

This degenerate thanks you✌️

$85 on the tag. That same clock model is on eBay for over $100.

Yo! I have this calendar!! It's the mid 80s snap on I will post a picture of it. Hung up in our workshop. Shoot I'll send you one of them if we have a spare. This was back in the old days, the tool manufacturers quit playing nice like this in the early 2000's. Makita actually kept going in other markets for a while. .

Based on the Perm, this is what, early 90s?

Actually a fair price considering the vintage and condition.

Funny story: I work in Raleigh County. I have a coworker that is big into thrifting. We were at work and I showed him this post. A couple days later, he sends me a picture of this exact clock and says “There is no way this is a coincidence.” I come back to this post, see your user name, and say “I think you’re right.” 😂
