That's not frankenthreading. It's lateral thinking.

Anyhow, now we are on benches, I once restored an oil painting for a guy who made garden furniture. I didn't know what to charge him and he was a mate of a mate so I took a nice bench as payment. Everybody happy. But while I was restoring the painting I had to get a new daylight bulb. It was in an anglepoise thingy so I screwed it in single handed. No help whatsoever and no ladders involved.
