Yeah, shop tools can be damn pricey, especially the stuff your looking for.

Good morning Oregon FTE gang and friends.

Morning Don, Gerry and Pat.

Geez Don at $60 per hour no wonder you're busy. You should charge more.

Today I get to play cabinet maker. The tool box that we have in our work van is failing. I need to remove everything from the box, remove the box from the van and then make some repairs and upgrade the way it's built.

Hopefully I can get some help pulling the box out of the van... It's really heavy even empty.

I'm only getting $30 an hour for my efforts and I have to pay "the man" with part of that.

Morning Tiny! I Really am retired, and just do repair work for a couple of my best friends/farmers. I could charge more (John Deere and Caterpillar both charge over a hundred bucks/hr!), but then I'd have to report the income. They way I do it there's NO paper trail....................And I am trying to quit..........lol

Have a great day guys! Time for me to head to the shop first. I've got two large boxes of small parts, nuts and bolts to run through my automatic small parts washer. I truly love that machine! One of the best "tools" I've ever bought!

Then off to the farm..........

Just a fly by. In for lunch and now I'm off again. I'm hiding from my wife. She wants to "discuss" the purchase of a camper she found for the pickup.........................I think I've already lost the battle so I'm just delaying the inevitable.
