I visited my folks in Florida over New Year's. The aluminum sliding door in their condo (late 60's vintage, IIRC) was coming apart. One of the stiles (the non-handle side...go figure) was completely loose at the bottom. I needed something to press the stile back onto the glass (GENTLY!) and hold things together so I could drive some screws at the bottom. So I treated myself to a quartet of red sweeties from Bessey:

And, wonder of wonders, it worked.  The door is holding together (for now?) and I didn't crack a six foot glass panel in the process. Boxing them up for the flight back north was a bit nervy. They arrived having been opened and repacked with a thoughtful note from the nice people at Thumb Suckers Anonymous, but they arrived none the worse for wear all the same.

Why the cheap shot at TSA? They do important work in a thankless repetitive job.
