Guess I should weigh mine, it probably has the old socks and hope Julia mentioned. My luck usually runs the other way.

Totally, it's like the difference between trying to open a paint can with a screwdriver versus using the actual five-in-one tool. Some people still fight with the screwdriver for an hour and call it hard work. What's the worst "wrong tool" time-waster you've ever seen someone stick with?

Ugh, been there. I just pour a bucket of water in the pit to test mine, which feels like asking for trouble. My luck, I'd trip and flood the place for real.
