Talk:Thumbscrew

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Pliers?

Why the mention of pulling out finger/toe -nails? It's been mentioned in a few other articles, too, so it's redundant, but the main thing is that's not what the thumbscrew is for. Maybe by similarity it deserves a see also, but this seems like writing an encyclopedia article on the USA with half the article describing Sweden. If I knew more about this device I'd remove the text and extend the article, but maybe somebody with this knowledge could stand in? 71.197.131.165 20:23, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
