The Official Man Cave Thread

I know what you are saying, I was going to just buy a 2 ton engine hoist, only this is so much cheaper. Proceeding with caution nonetheless, cheers.

 

Mine is only a little red one, but I dont have a black one,

 

Speaking of Hammers... I found this at the side of the road tonight.Yet another.

 

The base and top box on the red one are 1978 vintage. Then it grew a side box. Then it sprouted the "booster box" between the top and bottom. A couple of years back I resorted to a thrift store where I found the black set used. Still have two more top boxes over in the workshop that have to be moved, along with a drill press, a pedestal mounted grinder, and a small metal lathe. You retire, but you never stop working. I just don't get paid anymore. ...J.D.

 

I promise its my 1st hammer
but I have found,

1 crow bar,
1 10 mm spanner
1 teng snips
1 teng screw-driver
1 teng pliers
1 vice grip
3 shifting spanners.

 

His neighbours said he was a quiet chap kept himself to himself.

 

You got to get up early, 3.30am.

 

Ill keep my eyes open for you Duck.

 

Not quite this model we played with but we used to do the job you asked about back in the 80's

 

Ah...Around here that time of day was the "pickup truck grand prix". All the trades people headed for the city [me too]…J.D.

 

And a spade.

 

And duct tape..now I think about it.

 

As someone on the forum once commented, it’s hard to explain to a police officer why you might have a hammer, cable ties, duct tape, bin liners, plastic sheeting, hacksaw and a spade in your car...

 

I think, what's happened here, is I have stumbled across mrO's body dump! This may be my last post!

 

Having 30 years experience as a hard core commuter on the Los Angeles freeway system, I believe you will see ANYTHING if you do it long enough. I usually ran over it as it flashed in front of me. Traffic on the freeways here in the off hours moves at 85+ MPH. You get in the commuter mode. Keep your right foot down unless there is no place to go [remembering there are 100's of cars right behind you doing the same thing]. On the odd occasion when my wife and I would go in to the city together, I would scare her to death. Welcome to my world wife. ...J.D.

 

Too far north, Galloway forest is huge

 

I passed an Elf costume today spread over about a mile, boots, hat, and , main bit.

 

Im a bus driver so I have the advantage of going over the same ground a few times in a couple of hours. What I see the first time and pass, gets picked up, next time around.

 

That doesn't sound good for your 'elf !!!

 

Its cold tonight right enough! it will need to find a friendly sheep to snuggle.
