Anyone know where I put the paint burning head of me Propane gas torch?
Arrrrgh! ain't it a bitch when you misplace something. Normally I'm careful about putting tools and attachments down or away to alleviate this sort frustration. No kind remarks of...ain't your arse sore yet. :-P |

One of the very few things which really annoys me is not being able to organise things properly, usually due to the lack of space. I dream of owning an enormous, gleaming workshop with more space than I could possibly use, although I doubt there's one that large. Si - With no idea where George put his paint burner. Probably somewhere safe. |

Thing is its full of wood and stuff and all me tools are in the spare back room upstairs. lol SAFE ya say, some floorboards will have come up in the bathroom later if it doesn't surface in places where I might think it is? last use the torch had was in the bathroom soldering a reroute of a water pipe. :-( |

Well when I can't find something the SO has usually put it in one of our least used cupboards in a dusty corner so the place looks tidier (I was missing my multimeter and a camera battery, I had been looking for them for months and stumbled upon them last week). I'll have a look for you :) |

I had a really useful 'Shark' 250mm pry bar, fantastic for getting embedded nails out & prying in general. Couldn't find it, emptied the van out - no trace & the bugger cost me £16 (and worth every penny). In my local B&Q warehouse I spotted one in the clearance bin reduced to £8 & bought it straight away. Opened the toolbag to pur it securely away - and there was the original. Still, you can't have too many pry bars can you..... -- Dave - The Medway Handyman www.medwayhandyman.co.uk |
