A few years ago I got rid of my wire coat hangers. I replaced them with wooden and with sturdy plastic hangers. The day after I did this I needed a wire hanger to retrive a clothing item that fell behind the washer. I didn't have one so I had to move the washer. Several weeks later I needed to dislodge something from the sink trap, I always used wire hangers to do this task. I would always unwind a wire hanger and use the hook end for a tool or use a straight end for a probing device. As a kid, many years ago, we would use wire coat hangers to make slingshots. I don't think that I was good enough to hit something but we did fantisize a lot. I now keep a few wire hangers in the garage for multi use purposes.

Thanks for the reminder,

TR

And who of us has not used one to unlock a car? Or as a makeshift antenna?

Whoa, Folks!

Don’t look now, but I think I witnessed someone hijacking this thread with just a wire coat hanger in his hand! No need for explosive sneakers here!!

:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Jerseyman

Don't look now, but I think Jerseyman has some amazing and arcane use for a coat hangar that he's waiting to spring on us.

Sure, I'll beg . . .
Please, sir, I need it for my book. :dance:
