What home improvement work did you do today?

just get a narrow/low pressure tip to reduce overspray. Fine finish tips like for doors/trim work will help keep it on the wall and not bounce off and into the air....might just take longer to finish but it beats rolling it all.

 

I just bought a couple bottles...I have beavers I need to remove and the last time I did, I had the Great American Beaver Slaughter of 2010...it took 15 years for them to return...and boy, are they busy and hungry! Ha! Thank you for the suggestion!

 

Good luck.

 

No.. I'm at the south end of the Skyway Bridge... Palmetto ...

 

I cleaned my garage. I've amassed a lot of crap over the past few years and it needed a good purge. Filled up my trailer with a load of stuff that's going to the dump. I can actually walk around AND use my workbench now.

 

Cleaning out all of that stuff is liberating.

 

It is. It does feel good to get rid of it, but at the same time I just think of all the money that got wasted. I was able to put some stuff on marketplace and craigslist, but a lot of things I'm like, "There's $20, there's $50, etc...

 

Started the process of cleaning out my dads garage. He passed away earlier this year, and it was time to start going through his belongings. We brought home a 3 gallon bucket full of snap on and craftsman sockets, and about 100+ different wrenchs, ratchets, all the same brands. Still have various specialty tools to sift through. My son also got this, my dad left it to him, was barely used.

 

Sorry to hear about your father. Happy to hear the next couple of generations will enjoy and appreciate his tools and hard work

 

My son and I both have toolboxes, mines a double stack and fairly wide. Now filled, soon time for an upgrade. Thinking of an Icon 73” chest to start with.

 

That's a sweet little unit.

 

I hear ya about tossing shit that holds value but where's the cut off in storing it...When I did a lot of side work I would save a lot of the extras and re use it. But now I'm at the point where side work I try not to do any and is pretty much exclusively for friends & family.
Shit, today I went to the scrape yard to cash in all of my type 1,2 and mixed brass and walked away with just under 1K

Sorry to hear about your Dad,and now your son can use the tools to keep the memories & dream alive.
I to lost mine and today it's 10 years ago to the day.
I miss his solid advice, the ball busting and the "added self" check to keep me in line.
