Ah yes, the trusty Instron, can't be beat.
I personally get good mileage from my Dynacord Echocord Super S65.

An old, but interesting post. I like using bearing scrapers. They're an old too not well known but have a definite purpose. I can always spot a fellow engineer to respect when I say "we need to find the bearing scrapers" and he goes "oh wow we have some?!".

I’ve never heard of that. What do they do?

They are used to remove tiny amounts of metal when fitting parts together. They look innocuous and a good test to determine if the new guy actually knows his stuff.

When I took construction class, we used to test out the new guys as well — if they cut the board too short we would send them back to the tool shed to go get the board stretcher.
