But it is SUPPOSED to be a CHICKEN.
The guys I learned from use only screwdrivers, and I haven't been cut
since I started doing it their way. Both kinds of little metal tool
are worse than useless.
I just work more slowly than that, perhaps because I don't rack
all that many nodes all that often. Practice makes perfect, I'm sure.

I suppose Sun racks fit that bill - as they have lines of tapped holes
rather than square sections, but since they come with US of A size
holes it drives us right-pondiands frantic.
It's easy to buy racks in the US with round holes for 12/24 screws.
Datacenters don't seem to like them (my situation), but many HPC
clusters have them.
