As a machinist a lathe is the first thing that comes to mind, you get some clothing or even a rope caught in the wrong place and it’ll eat you alive
There is usually an alligator or two (or three, or…) in the pond by my work. They definitely get big enough to kill a villain before anyone bothers calling to have them relocated.

Thanks for this. It led me to a super interesting Wikipedia article on it.
Recently retired from a place that makes rocket engines, and there’s just so much. Start with a rocket engine itself - the combustion gasses are like 3300 C (6000 F) with more than 400,000 lb of thrust. But there’s a lot associated. We dealt with lots of liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen. We have a giant braze oven that we can put a whole rocket nozzle into. It’s quite an arsenal.
I could bore him to death with Teams meetings.
I work with IT but in a meat processing plant, the giant saw that cuts pigs in half would certainly do it. Even though all of the slaughtering and butchering have been dismantled many years ago due to cutbacks, it would be a very good location for a horror movie or an augmented reality experience or something like that, it’s almost like everyone just up and left.
The autopsy saw. It’s a gleaming monstrosity of stainless steel designed to part human flesh like Moses parted the red sea. You can stack zombies as deep as you want, the saw won’t even slow down. The only thing that will stop it is the length of the mechanical arm it hangs from, because it’s unfortunately too heavy for most people to lift.
There’s a kid I work with that is going to end up stabbing me with a pencil. He’s gotten pretty close a few times.
The lab closet when I was teaching science might have worked. The stuff you let kids work with is as close to water as you can make it, but the stuff for demos could easily take out a Jason or a Freddy.

Most of my tools could - just a matter of how many swings it would take. Running them over with my work truck would probably be the quickest and chainsaw the messiest.
But which one would be the most satisfying?
Nail gun lobotomy? Or maybe that was my band name in the 00’s. I don’t remember for some reason.
Zip tying their hands behind their back and handing them over to the police, I guess.
100’ fall into the middle of an arena.
I work as a concert high rigger.
The contents of the fridge
Marketing strategy powerpoints
Lock that fucker in the burnout oven and see how long they exist at 800°F (~426°C)
Outright? Probably not a much, but I could definitely yank some wires or disable some safeties that would do the job with a little encouragement.
The cardboard crusher probably, just have to tip them over the edge. Puts them nicely in 1.5x1.5x1m cubes
