When I say "F**K Nut" I am referring to the small screw on the side of a C-Clamp that allows whatever is attached to the clamp to turn. I have also heard it referred to as the "F-Nut" of "Jesus Pole". I was wondering if it had an actual name. Does anyone know?
I've always heard it called the "Jesus Nut" for two reasons. One, it's made of soft metal and easy to snap, thereby requiring the loud "Jesus" when that happens. Second. because there are lighting wrenches that have a special hole for this nut and they happen to look like the Catholic cross. Yeah, you old timers remember the lighting wrenches with the crossed handles for the Altman 360 handles.
