WCDT Strips 3796 - 3800 (30th July to 3rd August 2018)
Carl-E:
...or is it the Swiss power knife of army tools?
At least, in Bubbles' hands...
I've used one of those before. The shirt I was wearing didn't survive.
SubaruStephen:
Concrete saw: just a slightly larger (gasoline powered) grinder.
BenRG:
Bubbles doesn't fool me; her posture in panel 3 is too practised and calculated. Either she's testing to see how Faye reacts to her doing heavy work whilst lightly clad or she's practising for her audition for the lead role in the rumoured The Evil Dead reboot movie. I'd heard that the producers had decided that chainsaws were too old school and were looking for a new gimmick! :laugh:
Oh, and Bubbles has no navel confirmed. There's just a join between her abdominals.
Seriously, I suspect that Bubbles keeps the concrete saw around as a time waster detector. If there appears to be no physical cause for her subject's complaint, she says 'I need to go in' and pulls out the saw. If the subject is then miraculously cured, she knows that there is no physical cause to find! It's an old sugeon's trick going back centuries!
anahata:
I find it slightly worrying that the grinder concrete saw appears (and Sam's excitement about same) in the same strip where Faye's just promised Sam will be returned with all her fingers still attached.
Deliberate wind-up on Jeph's part, of course. 'specially on a Friday...
OldGoat:
Looks like Stihl's Cutquick line. Often found on fire trucks and rescue rigs. I've known more than a couple chainsaw artists who can turn a stump in the yard into a large critter- bears are a local favorite - but I don't know of anyone using a disk blade to sculpt stuff.
But, this is Bubbles. I reckon she can get at least as much detail with that as I can with a Dremel.
