i need to get organized

**mikecwik** · 09-18-2011, 09:10 PM

the object is not to spend money and get all my loose stuff thats piled in drawers that cant be made heads or tails of. this took longer than i thought it would. i probably have another full day doing drill bits. i hope i can do files in one day. i hate clutter but im good at it.

its not pretty but it is a lot better.

making inroads on yourself is a good feeling. its not as good as boozing though!

afters, still a long ways from a new home though.

that was a great call. its already getting cluttered up again...sort of...things are still definitely improving and productivity is on the rise.

balancer cones and spacers got almost fancy.

im really going to put my bride to be to work helping me get this stuff done. im not telling her about the little bell ill ring to signal her to bring me a beer til after we are married though.

I can tell you right now that bell is a bad idea. She won't be able to hear it everywhere in the house especially if she is watching TV. You need one of those loud construction site buzzers they use on the office shack, the ones that make you jump out of your skin.

i dont watch much tv but i saw a good commercial today.

guy says his wife wanted something that went from 0 to 200 in 3.3 seconds for her birthday so he got her a scale.

socket rails were fine back in the day and i still use them for tools on the truck and they work ok. most of the ones you buy cost money(go figure), have either too many spots or not enough for the set. im not done with it but thought this was a simple project that your 8 year old could pull off with little supervision. it seems like an incredible space saver over what was with no loss of accountability.

the only problem that i might see is that the dividers have no bottom and they interconnect. ill have to wait and see how i like that and if i dont ill just use the router to make some new ones.

HOW ABOUT A SCHOCKER COLLAR ??????????????????????????????????

**mikecwik** · 02-15-2012, 10:29 PM

shock collar is for the bedroom. i wouldnt want her getting overexposed to something and have it's value lessened.

has anyone ever been ejected from this site?

i always liked these plier holders but couldnt bring myself to buy one. i had a bunch of rod laying around since forever so i thought id use it up. bends would be much better and faster with some o/a instead of just propane.
