18th Random Facts About You Thread.......

I bought some new work shoes today...25% off

steel toe steel plate and they have a good toe guard thing for when I have to kneel down so the toe material doesnt get all worn off

they look like these except the pic ones dont have the toe guard thing

 

i havent seen a "snap on" truck in years, you could buy tools off the truck back in the day..

 

I didn't know steel-toed shoes could look that good.

 

steel plated soles too

and yes they still have the truck guys here but I bought these at Zellers

 

I bought a used pure wool herringbone pea coat yesterday.

 

I love second hand store shopping, treasures to be found when you least expect it!

Worked on the raised beds all day today, now time for R&R....

 

since my last post I made $350...and another person is coming later to check out an engine I have for sale so hopefully the day will only get better

 

engine sold for $300

 

You seem to be doing quite well in the biz lately!..

I had perogies and some kind of fake mystery meat for dinner....

 

It has not stopped raining all day.

 

fuck me i just put my 200 kilo anvil in the back of my truck with nothin but a few boards and blocks and shit

 

my advice would be dont be that stupid...ask people for help because once you screw your back your whole life changes for the worse

also I like these shoes..they conformed to my feet already

they had another pair my size and I think Ill go buy them for spares (I have big feet )

 

I don't do kilos, so had to change it over - bloody hell!!!

 

2.2 lbs per kilo...or did you convert to stone?

 

Stone, makes more sense to me that way.

 

i know it was stupid i guess that makes me stupid.. i called my bro, he was at work. ima try to sell it at a shindig tomorrow. i can always buy another anvil after i get outta school. if i dont sell it i'll keep it at work from now on. nice shoes btw.

 

In the past I've installed engines in Toyota tercels without a hoist or anything like that...Id lift the engine and place it on the front bumper...then stand on the strut towers and lift then lower it into place with a strap...

now I can barely do anything without having to stop often due to back pain

also I'm loving those little hoops on the shoes...makes them 10 times easier to put on

 

Why Do You Want To Sell It, I Would Have Thought To You It Would Have

Been One Of Your Tools Of Trade..?



Cheers Glen.

 

i havent had my blacksmith shop going since i got out of high school. i bought this one about a year ago to put in my future shop. i need cash more than an anvil right now. i really want to get a 20,000 kilo (total weight) air hammer, so whats another 200 kilo anvil anyway??
