The bloke that started it all! I think that was his name.
Anyone remember Barry on the telly in the early 70s with his hardboard,
Formica and Evo-Stick?
I'm amazed that no-one seems to have mentioned the big Yankee spiral
ratchet screwdriver (used with pre-drilled pilot and main holes, of
course, so everything went together incredibly quickly and easily).
Now, of course, with decent rechargable drill-drivers and twinstart
screws anyone can put stuff together just as quickly!
