>3% is headed back to the dump.

Sounds sacreligous to me!, and I'm sure that it is also a violation of the Law. Ooooooooooo, you in a heap o' trouble now!! ;~)

I sure would like to what the 3% is. I betting it's the snowblower and sled, no wait, that's what it would be for me down here, tho I'd probably keep the sled, and at least rob parts from the snowblower, but then again, I think all thos parts would take up less space if left in present configuration, so I'd keep that too. What the heck could the 3% be?

Keven, you simply need another barn.

Dados! Start stacking 'em up!

>2 Table Saws

Can yopu salvage the arbors from them? Would the tops not make for good stone or tool flattening stations? Perhaps you could mount sanding disks on them? Yeak, ok, I'm not crazy about the sanding disk idea either.

a Tools stand. 2 sets of shelving,

You must be joking. You'll need them someday, but until then disquise them as a potting stand or something. One the stand put a bowl of water on it and call it a bird bath.

about 20#s of copper

Gee if nowt else, I'd take it to a recycler, or melt it down into ignots to be used as weights for some glue-up need.

and a splitting maul I gave my nieghbor.

You should of kept that Kevin, you never know when Thoreau will show up begging for a tool.

I still think you're breaking the Law, so CITIZENS ARREST! CITIZENS ARREST!! *

GOOD POINTS BUT, I HAVE AT LEAST 7 MORE

WHEN I NEED THEM I WILL FIND THEM

I DON'T SELL THE STUFF I FIND I GIVE STUFF AWAY

and a splitting maul I gave my nieghbor.

You should of kept that Kevin, you never know when Thoreau will show up begging for a tool.

I HAVE 3 MORE AND A FOUR MORE HEADS

T. O. ISAY AGAIN, THERE'S NO SLIPPERY SLOPE HERE. 7 TSs TAKE A LOT OF ROOM ESPECIALLY IF YOU ADD TO THAT 7 SCROLL SAWS, 2 JOINTERS, 3 BS, AND A DRILL PRESS. THAT DOESN'T INCLUDE THE ONES I USE. I CAN WALK AWAY FROM ALL OF THESE. WELL MAYBE I'D KEEP A COUPLE OF THE SCROLL SAWS AND MY 1941 BS BUT THE REST COULD BE OUT OF HERE TOMORROW.

>Yeah Kevin, I hear ya' Bro, I was just funnin' with ya. Trust me, I've reach my limits with over-saturation of stuff a few times myself. Just can't stand to it go to waste, but then again, just can't stand to store it forever either. Enough to drive a person completely whack-o. Kinda' like putting a Frenchmen* in a roundhouse and telling him........ahhhhhhhhh you probably know that one. ;~)

OK, I'll turn off the Citizens arrest, BUT!! I'll be watching you. ;~)

* No disrespect intended towards Frenchmen, but I will say that they used to be the butt of our jokes in Maine at least. Kinda' like I am down here in Florida. All in good fun.

T.O.

Who wonders who's the butt of Frenchmen jokes. Portugese perhaps?

Shouldn't the sign on the barn read...

>"Sanford and Son" :>)

Something about the spacing of that lettering on the barn bothers me.

How one would go about correcting it is another matter.

Nice jacks there, are they spoken for?

Victor - just finished up another round of de-rusting planes

Check out the shovel in front of the bike

>Is that really a shovel or some sort of evel look alike? Looks like the steel brace runs half way up the handle. Now that's a handle that won't readily break.

>they ren out of O's at the dump it's suposed to sas WE LOCO ME

Kevin did I ever tell you I was a poor workin man that only could aford one plane a #5 with a busted out side and a kinked worrented superior hand saw? my chisel is an old table knife I found and sharpened it on a rock. It works Ok with the tree limb I use as a mallet.
