I know what you mean! I was tweaking a Keeney valve the other day and the main washer, the galvanized one ,not the rubber O-ring, has a franklin-type key on it. Needless to say, I struggled like hell to obtain the correct amount of torque before realizing the threads were reversed! Go figure.

That'll be Mike Dickwhittington, the inventor of the asbestos gusset.  Mounted backwards on a moving platform, Miguel can trash whole areas of rainforest fueled solely on Guinness and peanuts.
