back scratcher
« on: June 02, 2009, 04:10:39 AM »
Got so eaten up with bug bites I couldn't reach, I got desparate and grabbed the rope going to the doorbell. A couple pulls back and forth did the trick, but next time I probably won't be using a manilla rope.

I used a whisk broom to scratch my back when I was a little tricycle motor. That thing felt so gooood; until about the next day or so, when all those scratches started healing up. The skeeter bites that started the whole episode were nothing next to the wrath that followed!   :o
Out of all the ramrod acessories I have made, one has never taken the form of a little hand with an 8-32 wrist, screwed into a 10-32 adapter. Hmmmmmmm........ :   ;D

I have a hair brush taped to a 2 foot stick. All the way from a light scratch to drawing blood. yep

You guys are getting to sophisticated with your back scratchers. I usually back up to the nearest tree, post, or corner I can find. I have just about rubbed all the paint off the door facing in my shop. ;D

I have two. One is made from bamboo with a nice little hand cut into it complete with fingers. The other is more like the ram rod idea really. It has a nicely turned wood handle with a fitting on it much like on a ram rod and into it screws a metal hand.

Balou the bear in Jungle book was my hero when it came to back scratching.

I use a straight claw framing hammer with a long handle. Be gentle or you'll be sorry.

I've used my hammer and my pry bar too. You're right, be careful with both.

A corncob glued on a stick makes a dandy back sratcher.
