I once got a box of grips as a freebie with some stuff i bought years ago.
I opened the box looked at them and dropped the lot in the bin and never bought anything from them again and told them why. Pricks.
 
Just an observation, why have you still got em?

I keep all sorts of things, even this!

As you can see by it starting to mushroom it still gets used.
I keep it hanging up in the garage for hitting things (usually fingers). Maybe i should have donated it to the tool fund :smile:
 
My concern is how you know where all this shyte is! I can't find an end feed elbow in my stash.
 
Knowing where things are isn't the problem. Getting to them usually is.
The headless estwing hangs on a nail by the door so i can always find that.

Lots of stuff but no crap. I keep the hammer for sentimental reasons. It was the first estwing i bought 30 odd years ago. I wouldn't bin the wife if she broke her leg :lol:

Ive had the same estwing for 15 years, it looks nothing like that. Is it mad of lead or is it chinese.

Looking at the stuff in your shed, you probably have a prosthetic leg in there as well somewhere

Send it to croppie instead. Bottle it up, stick a real ale sticker on the bottle and send it from all his friends in the arms!

But has he really got kids? Or was that all part of the X factor sob story too?

Besides, I don't know about you but if I have something delivered to my address with my name on it, only I open it?!? Surely that should be the case for him too?

Stop being so soft anyway! Revenge is good!

i took an instant dislike to him and got slated for it

A dislike's one thing Steve, we can't all like everybody. It was the dyslexia issue he claimed he had that I was fighting his corner for. As I said before it hits me on a deep emotional level so I fought his corner.

Believe me mate, I feel absolutely betrayed by him,

And I am so sorry to everyone who I took to task.

Im sure thers a website some where you can enter their details and they shed loads of abuse spam junk mail etc as it submits the details to hundreds of dodgy sites etc.

Is the consensus then that i shouldnt send this pile of poo

Dont fret it Croppie. When you take on a job like modding, you have to make some calls. Some will be wrong. Thats life.

The problem i see is that if a stern warningnis not sent to him he will just find other charitable people to take advantage of . He needs a lesson teaching and feck the consequences

This is my point, a little sh//t like him was a total fiction and yet good hearted guys on here , were taken in. In the real world they would not have been.
 
Well I don't want to go off on a tangent, but talking of nicked tools. Had my lock up broken into last night. I don't know if someone disturbed them but they mainly nicked copper. Bags of scrap I had stored, and a load of tube. Plus a few little tools. But they stepped right over some very expensive kit.

The annoying thing is I have now had to move the expensive stuff in the house over night. I still had to go off to work this morning, and got home at 8. Ate dinner, and just finished loading it in the house. The wife has organised some new storage, twice the price and half the size, but secure.

Cheers. Yeah, I felt I was being watched the other day. Turned and saw a flatbed transit. Started walking over to it, and they drove off. Also the lock up next to mine was broken into and all the others were left. The one next door just had a car inside. I was definitely targeted. Bit worried about the van now.

LOL! Thanks for the kind offer, but it's one of these easy store places. So I won't be fitting it out. It's only temporary as I'm going to speak to a bloke I know from my local who has a secure yard, and see if he's got a spare unit. He actually lives on the yard too, in a static caravan. So we shall see. Hopefully he has some space as I can't keep this other lockup for ever.

Don't joke, I've been to one of dannys lock ups!
he didn't want to throw the powerflush unit in with the van sadly!

We use these type of traps around the machines if they are left in a "hotspot"
rig one up in the lock up, either you'll forget and wake yourself up very quickly or you can have fun with the apprentice walking in the lock up.

Safe to say if any thief gets in, they will be running away with a turd hanging out!

Mate, I was considering knocking something like this up. As I have shot clay pigeon since I was a kid, and used to nick my dads cartridges to cut the gun powder out and make giant bangers. (Don't try that at home - I'm lucky I didn't hurt myself).

I will def' buy a couple of those. Thanks.

that makes 2 of us trying to remove fingers!!, some of my antics as a nipper meant my own lad had a helicopter dad hovering over him for a while, till the missus told me to back off. Next day we were in A&E with a snapped arm in several places doh

I bet they left the expensive kit because it draws attention when trying to shift it later.

Taking tube down the scrappy or putting dewalt drills on eBay won't raise and eyebrow.

But your FGA and powerflusher look a bit obvious down the pub
