The axe trick will work, but you need a vacuum in order to get the best results. In my experience, shops are unwilling to spend the money required to buy a vacuum big enough to swing an axe

Surely the vacuum in all mechanics heads would compensate for that tho

This reminds me of the threads on the trademe forums

That depends on the size of the shop, the more mechanics, the bigger the vacuum. It's simple physics really.

Leverage only - the handle end like a shoe horn (unless they are bad payers)...

I heard that there there had actually been a tear in the space/time continuum in the Burkes workshop?

Probably the most action he's seen in a long time too!
