>>1200637
Tie the back of someone's shirt to the lathe.

>>1200639
Ahahah if this was not a blue board i guess i'd be posting quite beautiful pictures

I suppose you could rig the dust collection to blow instead of suck.

>>1200637
>shut the breaker off to certain machines and then smirk when co-workers can't turn it on
>make a ruler that measures off by .3in and share with co-workers who forget theirs
>make a haunted drill AvE style that has the controls switched

>>1200637
Smear a thin layer of vaseline in the shape of a dick on a cabinet door just before finishing.

Put the Mitre/Radial saw blade on backwards.

Bring in a small jar full of termites, ruin your work years from now after the warranty is over.

It's all about the slow roll.

>>1200662
Your sweat will do the same.

>>1200637
add 3-4 drops of oil onto the windings of every electrical motor in the shop. They will smoke but it wont cause damage.

Tap every square in the shop with a hammer to make them all off by a degree.

Work at a cargo trailer shop and I went in at midnight one night and covered all the tools and funniest things I could think of with these, 6 months later the other guys are still finding them every so often

>Actual prank and not malicious vandalism

What do you think you're doing

>>1200898
Lol, I helped pay for a lot of those tools and it's a pay by production job

Ain't enough lotion in the world to fuck myself that hard

Someone at my shop gets every new guy, and nobody seems to know who it is except that it's someone that's been there a while.
He tapes a wad of meat to the bottom of the new guys rolling tool box on a Friday.
It's fucking terrible.

fill everyones drill with left handed bits

replace any blades (particularly the bandsaw) with gallium blades

Buy all kinds of reverse threaded screws and mix them with the normal ones.

>>1200639
Lol, I did this to some guy I worked with once. The look on his face was priceless.

>>1200642
Post them

>>1200637
Build a trebuchet and launch flaming cabinets at people.

>>1200637

>>1200637
I like to put the left handed nails in the right side drawer.
You can easily tell the difference at a glance by which way the heads point but when in a rush hilarity ensues.

>>1202469
You madman!

Trim all the push-blocks by 30% in length.
Crack them in two and put the pieces back together with fish glue.
Hammer every blade on every table or circular saw.
Replace the riving knife by a thin cardboard cutout.
Print fake "SawStop" logos and glue them to the machines.

the last guy who tried to pull pranks on me is in a waste disposal site now
At least he earns more

>>1202487
Jesus anon

grind all the endmills into ball mills
and all the ball mills into endmills

>>1201560
Did he get all torn up over the whole thing?

Replaced all of the oil absorbent powder with powdered chlorine.
Dump some break fluid on the ground and wait for someone to clean it up.

Hide all the elbow grease in odd places.

make liquid fire warning stickers and put it on every liquid

Rewire the lights so both tubes have the same polarity. This will create a stroboscopic effect that will make some tools look like they're not moving.

>>1200637
TP the whole place

>>1200637
Hide the cabinet shop receptionist's tip jar.

>>1200637
wire 220 motor tools to 120
switch the start and run windings

pour gasoline everywhere

If your shop has a metal ceiling take all the tape measures that have magnetic tips and stick them up there

No. The file name is just a mental setup.

>>1202980
Good thing the chuck was loose.

>>1203030
and the driver died of a heartattack a few minutes after

>>1203030
Christ how did they even turn it sideways to begin with

>>1202691
yeah, he got his panties all twisted up about it

>>1203057
That shit triggered me.
Along with the idiot who just grabs the pole like he is going to do jack shit to stop that idiot from getting sucked in the machine with the power of his bald spot.

>>1200676

> push your sweaty dick on the cabinet...?

put double sided glue in the single-side blue drawer

Replace epoxy with corn syrup.
Reverse the vacuum system to blow.
Put Pop Its under foot pedals, if any.
Reverse the polarity on saws so blades spin in reverse.
Glue the sandpaper sheets together.
Rub hot pepper on toilet paper.
Hide balloon in circular saw so it pops when started.

Gets first pick I guess.
Lots of nice shit people throw away. Enough batteries to run your home.

>>1203241
You mean rechargeables or just half-dead AAs? Not sure which I would trust less, but if they're in an unbroken container they couldn't be too bad unless they were the mode of failure. I've seen NiMHs spontaneously combust on Clive's bench, I'm never taking one of those apart.

>>1202980
I understand that your mind completely goes to shit in a situation like that but

>Grabbing the workpiece instead of turning off the lathe

>>1203280
It did take them a while to turn it off, but since the stock was both still in the chuck AND severely bent, I think it was stalled, though it might have been stalled against the guy's spine. What bugs me is how long it took them to loosen the chuck.

So if a guy with metre-length hair, baggy sleeves, flip-flops, and millions of dollars worth of life and/or health insurance walked into your shop and asked for a job, would you give it to them?

>>1203345
only if I was the recipient of the life insurance

Reversing a shop grade dust collection is impossible.
Glue down nail and screw boxes.
Glue bench drawers and doors shut.
Glue down anything really.
Replace paint thinner with water.
Carve swastikas on the ends of wooden handle hammers.
Draw dicks on everything.
If a dude showed ass crack we'd shoot his ass crack with compressed air. That'll fucking wake you up at 6am.
Fucking with people's tools will get you an ass kicking so I wouldn't advise that.
Most pranks were really just light hazing to new guys who didn't know shit. Typical construction jokes.
Warp away oil
Board stretcher

We used to joke about the laser level 3000 until one fucker came back with the laser level the foreman bought that we didn't know about.

>>1203772
>Glue down nail and screw boxes
>coworker goes to pick it up
>bottom rips out
>screws fucking everywhere
this is probably one of the more subtly savage pranks ITT

>>1200637
>Change the bevel on the mitre saw by 1/2 degree.
Do that in my shop and I'll fucking kill you.

I bought a bunch of single serving size cans of spotted dick and hid it in a buddies tool box, bags, etc, a couple of times a week. He was still finding them a month later. We still give him shit about it and get him a full size can on his birthday. That says, he did develop a taste for it.

>>1203796
They still make nails and screws in cardboard boxes? All the ones I buy are in plastic tubs.

>>1204102
Yeah, finish nails especially. But we made our own totes from scrap.

>>1202983
Thank you

>>1200776
reminds me of the dick cards thing or whatever from /k/

That kind of prank just might kill someone one day.
German worker nearly killed by anal application of compressed air: http://www.sz-online.de/nachrichten/arbeiter-mit-druckluft-beschossen-lebensgefahr-1570919.html

checks out

This thread reminded me of something I did for a day at my work.

>let huge fart bomb go off in my pants near old man at my work
>a few seconds later he looks really upset and rushes to the bathroom, I assume to check his pants
>have bad gas all day
>intentionally fart near him all day
>every time he rushed to the bathroom in a panic

I had to stop because I couldn't control my laughing anymore and the old guy ended up leaving work early that day
