A-Z game rules. Please read all the rules carefully!

• Follow in alphabetical order A-Z.

• Please include the English translation for each Spanish word.

• Don't forget to click on NEWEST to see the last letter.

• It would be nice if you posted a PICTURE.

This game is for small power tools or hand held tools, only. These are the types of tools used in professions such as carpentry or joiners, painting, plumbing, electrician, drywall, plaster, carpet layer, leather making, pottery, cabinet making, furniture making, etc.

Repeating! Please do not use big machines like bulldozers or dump trucks or concrete mixtures. If the tool cannot be carried in a tool box by hand or tool belt around the waist or apron over the neck it probably is too large for this game.

Have fun everybody. Lovely Love has been gracious enough to help me with the fine points of setting-up this game and she has voluteered to monitor. Thank you Lovely Love! -- bandit --

I’ll start us off with A - los alicates - pliers

Funny, we call those pinzas, which are really tweezers. Alicates is more standard, I think. - KevinB, Aug 27, 2010
