Probably one of the oldest plumbing tools. According to some sources, the adjustable screw-based design quite possibly dates back to early 19th century. It is still in production in an unchanged design. This one has been used heavily, but is still in a good shape and will serve many generations of new plumbers.

Skeleton joints were animated procedurally with CHOPs.
