Show Us The Worst Packaging For Tools You Have Found

[Bob Korves]

My peeve is with the sick astards who package bandaids. Your bleeding, trying to hold a rag on the cut finger and get into those sealed packages. Sick sense of humour.

No need for Band Aids. The nearest dirty and oily rag works just as well... 8^)

staples for the big cuts

Cyanoacrylate (superglue) works really well too!

security for auto light bulbs ,, id for cough syrup...cable cinches on 50" tvs...like no-one will notice that in your pocket

Heres why they use cable cinches

What the heck is a cable cinch? Is that a ty-wrap?

Kind of sorta.. But made of aircraft type of cable, no plastic. With the right picking tools, the locks can be picked quickly. Wait a minute, or do they use those special magnetic type of locks, a magnet may or may not open...

When I buy something with a heavy plastic case on it I ask the checkout person to remove it for me after I pay for it. They have accommodated no problem.

Not tool packaging, but food....anything in a package made with cross linked polymers...have put more food in the trash trying to open the packaging... Often it opens suddenly and violently and seems to disperse the contents across many square feet!

sound like the salad containers they use..when they come open they shatter

When I bought my cylindrical square (not a particularly lightweight piece of metal) it came in a box made of 1/4 " thick wood. Actually, they were 1/4" wood splinters...
