And since I had to move my pallet rack to set them up in the shop, they have come in very handy plus I'll be able to store a fee of my extra engines or transmissions on them. I was worried that they might had been Home Depot ones so I stopped by the nearest one to where the seller was, but the HD didn't have any as small or like this one, nor did Lowes, and neither were close to the sellers property to walk em there.

I'm quite pleased. I've got into the habit of going to the dump shop (recycler at the tip) to look at Amy who worked there. Sadly she has moved on. Something to do with setting up cash rewards for returning bottles... But I still go there anyway.

Last week I got a nice pair of Mission speakers for about US$20. Today I got a NAD amp to go with the speakers. A bit extravagant I know but I paid us$15 for it. Wow, they go together well. They are for the mancave and I plug my phone into it and play music youtubes.

I also got a bag of about 30 tennis balls for $3 for my new tennis hobby. And something else that I can't remember. Oh, yes, good quality speaker cables for two dollars. And a 6'6 surfboard for ten bucks to use as fence art for my beach theme front fence.

Scored this virtually unused original Kreg Pocket Hole Jig on FB Marketplace The original model was made out of aluminum and was sold from inception in 1990 until 2000 when they introduced their plastic models. I've been using a Makita Biscuit Joiner for 25+ years. This is my first foray into Pocket Hole-ery.

^^^I like that model. You will get a a lot of satisfaction out of that. It may or may not have the adjustments for different thicknesses. You'll probably have to experiment on scraps before assembling a project. I don't use mine much because I repair mostly, but it can be handy for that too if the item can have modern screws. Unfortunately I'm called upon to use old stock slotted screws on most that comes in.

You can buy different length screws for pockets.

I believe we all make mistakes but I will not validate your poor choices and/or perversions and subsidize the results your actions.

Exactly. Someone that lived close to a HD used that to get something that they bought home. Some HD manager is wondering "where the hell did my cart go?".

Interesting. That looks like one of the sorts that I see at HD, and the same color. Good on you for checking.

Picked up a sweet little tv for my workshop on our neighborhood buy nothing page. No more watching how-to vids on my phone.

Got bunch of things off FB. 2 different Bose Wave radio cds. One grey that was kind of beat up and had a blown speaker for $40, another one in perfect condition for $50. The perfect one was white. Got a Bose Music System IV for $20. Looks perfect, but no power. Need to send it out for repair that will run $100 for that plus shipping.

Bought a couple tool boxes. A nice stainless Kobalt for $100 and it was damned heavy! And a Craftsman topper for $50.

^^^ That Kobalt tool cart is fantastic for $100! Nicely done!

Yesterday when I was at the tag office the building next door was getting new landscaping. It's the old tag office and sheriff's dept before they moved into the courthouse bldg where I was. Anyhoo....you know me when a landscape job is going on....I have to get a closer look and offer some peanut gallery commentary - which I did. This sign was in the dump trailer so I grabbed it.....very sturdy and would make a nice potting table top or for other things....
