| - If the Heppler wrench is so [ common] [[Chronology - Volume #|✣ ]] a tool that everyone in Mechanicsburg seems to carry one, why isn't one visible in [ Rivet's tool collection] [[Chronology - Volume #|✣ ]] or [ the work area that Gil has set up for Agatha] [[Chronology - Volume #|✣ ]]? Rivet could arguably have been carrying her Heppler wrench, but if Gil was assuming that Agatha needed everything, the omission of the Heppler wrench is odd. We never get to see all the tools in Rivet's collection nor Gil's lab. There may well be Heppler Wrenches in both places, but they are simply out of our sight.

They look similar to the ones on Gil's [ gardening shears] [[Chronology - Volume #|✣ ]] which allow them to be [ motorized] [[Chronology - Volume #|✣ ]], but we haven't seen signs of this in the wrench. Could Agatha have one on over her shoulder on this Girl Genius cover ? Sadly, we suffer from a bit of link-rot here. I got a 404 error when I activated the link. At any rate, if it is the cover picture I am thinking of, I believe Agatha was holding a large Stilson wrench on her shoulder rather than a Heppler or a monkey wrench. Yes, there really is such a thing as a monkey wrench. Billy Catringer 06:00, October 4, 2010 (UTC)
