That extra long rake should be called the "Safe rake", since with it you can open the door of the neighbour opposite from the comfort of your own home.

When you mentioned asking the engineer for an extra long rake, I knew what you were going to get. At a previous job I needed a long insulated stick. One of the engineers in the lab asked how long. My mistake was saying "longer is better, do you have something?" He pulled out a 25 foot long insulated pole behind a row of lockers.

I'm an electrical engineer and found that incredibly long rake to be hilarious. Over the years, I have dealt with many dimensional constraint issues (mechanical and civil). That rake as Lock Picking Lawyer has just showed us proves how important dimensional requirements can be despite being infinitely annoying at times.
Also Submariner. Clinometer bubble is epic. Other pointless tasks: Feed the shaft seals. Fetch some waterline. Also shoreline. Flagpole key. Bandage the oxygen bleed. There isn't a bubblehead alive that won't laugh at the Giga-Rake. Not even my last COB.

Ahhhh, that's great! Had a work order one time to level a hoist. The mount had settled over time causing it to tilt and the hoist always ran down to the far end. The work order said "hoist isn't plum." So, we spray painted the whole thing plum purple and signed off on it. The engineer wasn't happy but.....those are the good times.

Historically it has been easier to remove/cut down parts of a tool than to add parts to one, this is the main reason to oversize anything.

It seemed that he'd shown the box to the whole of the crew because they all became part of the joke. It's good to laugh!
I'm an electrical engineer and found that incredibly long rake to be hilarious. Over the years, I have dealt with many dimensional constraint issues (mechanical and civil). That rake as Lock Picking Lawyer has just showed us proves how important dimensional requirements can be despite being infinitely annoying at times.
as an unemployed person i also found it amusing :)
Also Submariner.
Clinometer bubble is epic.
Other pointless tasks: Feed the shaft seals. Fetch some waterline. Also shoreline. Flagpole key. Bandage the oxygen bleed.
There isn't a bubblehead alive that won't laugh at the Giga-Rake. Not even my last COB.
@@lairdcummings9092, two tins of Tartan Paint, a box of sky hooks and get me a "Long Stand" from stores.....5 hours later.......!
The comically long rake killed me
So cool to see stuff from the subreddit here! I saw a pic of this thing a few days ago never thought I’d actually see it in action
"Hey, can I pick some locks?"
"Only as many as you can fit on your rake"
(*PULLS OUT COMICALLY LARGE RAKE*)
"I need an extra long rake"
Cue malicious compliance...
That would 100% be me lol
Clearly your company technician have a wicked sense of humor! Love it!
And love your channel, it's a subject that I'm fond of but never really has gone into - yet... maybe some day...
You certainly proved that your hiring process is well tuned! Nice team!
you've heard of comically large spoon. now get ready for comically large rake
Beat me to it lol
oversized novelty rake :)
I suggest naming that rake "The Swordfish"
Zwei-Hander
Ahhhh, that's great! Had a work order one time to level a hoist. The mount had settled over time causing it to tilt and the hoist always ran down to the far end. The work order said "hoist isn't plum." So, we spray painted the whole thing plum purple and signed off on it. The engineer wasn't happy but.....those are the good times.
Hats off to The Not So Civil Engineer. It's not often you get one up on the LPL.
I don't know who that person is that made that rake, but I feel like they deserve a raise for that.
now that is a power move if I've ever seen one.
nonononono, the REAL power move was to actually USE IT and opening the lock with it on the first try without any hesitation at all.
Any other CZcamsr would have photoshopped that foot long pick as a poor clickbait attempt. Props for actually featuring it!
The humor of an engineer can be beautiful thing sometimes 😆😆
