Yes, yes there are. As are others. Especially when you disassemble stuff and need to keep parts organized.

As long as we're discussing useful stuff in a coffee thread, that has a landscaping branch .... I use many tarps on my flatbed and dump trailers, some solid, some mesh. And to retain them I prefer having a constant tension, although that can go both ways.

Early in life mass quantities of bungee cords used to get put into a box, leaving me to frustratingly find just the right length I was looking for. Usually now I have these better organized to length then shown in these pictures, but this shelf from HD provides a organizational tool for me.

Got up early to do an exercise at the airport for emergency response crash testing. Scenario was the plane had an engine out on takeoff. Made us volunteers up with "injuries" and placed us around the airliner out on one of the taxiways. I was the open fracture of the right leg guy. Interesting exercise. Here was my leg:



They served coffee and breakfast tacos to those who volunteered!

Good to know I am not alone in saving things like that.

Because one of my hobbies happens to be electronics and electromechanical
I save pill bottles for small parts. I finaly gave up on one batch last night
and they got the labels removed and dumped in the trash. It was a small box
full. They also make good cat toys. However I can no longer store treats in them.
Bella found a way to open the child proof bottles. She has some very strong
teeth and a jaw to go with them.

I bave been hanging them from one that type of shelves that happens to be
holding up household supplies. yes they do dangle a bit but reaching around
them is easy. After all the only thing behind them is stuff that is not used that much.

Drool time.

I was also looking to purchase a tractor for snow removal and food plots before the credit union became aware of my lower income. That actually presents a topic for a new thread:
"What tractor size should I get and what other things can I do with it and it's implements to make extra cash?"
For one, I'm not sure where to start the thread. Any ideas?


Found something to make you drool a little bit.

Quiet coffee this morning, wife is 80 miles away and should be getting her new hip right now. All goes well she will be riding again in 3 months. This ball joint should last a lot longer than the ones I just put into the beast

Rain here this morning, cup in hand..... off today and I can't go out and play, what a bummer.

Hey, I'll be in Everett Wa on Monday and Bremerton the following Monday, anybody close to there?
