Talking to a new guy who only knows glue-down made me miss the feel of a good stretch-in
He said he'd never even seen a knee-kicker, which hit different after I spent 15 years in St. Louis where we used them on every job before 2010.

Wait, knee-kickers were definitely still around after 2010. We used them for tricky spots even with power stretchers.

Yeah, they never fully went away.

Remember seeing my grandpa use one of those old hand-kickers in his shop, the kind with the wooden handle. He'd always say the new tools made you lazy, which is funny now that @the_felix mentioned using them for tricky spots. That thing was heavy and left a weird dent in the floor from where he'd brace it.
