Idler wheel c clip on the mow deck went out. Wheel fell off and I ran it over……fucker went 200 feet into the woods. Found it, new clip still good. 

Changed a fan in split system a/c compressor runs like new now. Used a window box fan to cool it for 10 days till the motor came in.

My luck, it would bounce off the brick on the house, or steel siding of my barn and hit me in the head.

i use my wrench racks for doing work outside. and do you not see my hansen socket tray holding all my tekton sockets? the sockets in the drawer are the ones that don't fit or don't have a place. wrench racks are cool but take up too much space

I try to keep misc sockets on socket rails.  You can get 1/4, 3/8, and 1/2" socket rails at the Wal-Mart for like $6 a piece and they are decent for the money.

So how does he pay for your lift/expenses(heat electricity),, shop space?Do you give him a cut from your jobs??

[racinfarmer]

The usual scumbags look like they are selling a half knocked off Grypmat for about 60% of what the Grypmat set sells for.  Hmmm.

i dont work on other people's cars here, unless it's a customer that goes through the company. i can work on my own vehicles. when i either get my focus running or register my 2 door tahoe i am going to sell me s10. i will still have a square body suburban, the focus, and the 2 door tahoe. the money from the s10 will allow me to get a few more cars to fix and sell.

red mountaineer is the target. idk where the keys are for it though

Anyone have a really good way to organize a bunch of screwin" tools?

I've narrowed it down to 2 or 3 options.

I think this one is in the lead:

https://www.amazon.com/Tool-Sorter-Screwdriver-Organizer-Black/dp/B00NTEF4UU?ref_=ast_sto_dp

2nd place: 

https://www.harborfreight.com/tool-storage-organization/tool-storage/screwdriver-rack-56655.html

3th place is a magnet bar and have the handles for each style off to a dedicated side.  Cheapest of the tree.

Organize?  I'm amazed if they make it back to the toolbox at all....
