Never seen any of the fast 9 movies.

I guess there is an insatiable appetite for CGI car crashes.
One of the crashes in one of the movies was filmed at one of our locations. They really did send a car off a cliff, which was really just a high wall at one of our biggest quarries. They also filmed a lot of the Hunger Games there, they were filming the first time I ever went there. I was contracting then and was pulling a drill that looked unusual and they asked if I was part of the film crew.
 
I want it for all the basic shit I have...hammer, screwdrivers, drill bits, measuring tape, box cutter... all that type of stuff. But I want to keep it organized, too. Right now, I have some stuff shoved into a junk drawer, some stuff in the deck storage closet and the measuring tape? I can never find it when I need it, so don't ask!!


Get a regular plastic one with the removable tray on top and the bucket bottom. Small stuff, immediate stuff goes in the tray, hammer wrenches, pliers, screwdrivers, pistols, electric screwdriver, tapes, etc. in the bottom

Ah, see, I have all my stuff like that stored all over the place, too, but it's all organized in its own way, and I know exactly where everything is. Anyone else would have no idea where to find anything and would likely wonder why some things are kept in one place and other things kept elsewhere.

My measuring tape is in the third drawer down on the left. :)

How about something like these? They wouldn't be much fun for carrying around town taking out screws that annoy you but they would be good at home. The yellow one is also a short step ladder and a bench too!

And the grey one came with that 25' wind up extension cord that hooks to the side when not in use. So handy!

Good luck to you in your future projects!

You're gonna get it, fucko.


Now lemme ask you about this Sony... :heh:

Naw but for real doe....I would recommend one of those bags too for most people to use around the house. They are a lot easier to move around and less cumbersome. I got this big fucker for krissmas over a bag that had roughly the same shit and regret it now. I know that one is a lot bigger but still.

That fucking measuring tape is in the junk drawer, next to the box cutter but I can't open it right now because the goddamn hammer is in there and it's tilted up and now I have to shove my arm in there to dislodge it.

Nevermind... measuring tape is on the table outside, where I left it yesterday, apparently.

The other problem I have is sometimes my handy-dandy tools cross over into my crafty-dafty tools and then when I get burned out, I just shove them all together and don't put them back where they are supposed to go. :sigh:

I mean, the squishy one is not terrible, maybe a 4/10 and might finger, but where am I going to put my drill bits that didn't come in their own little box? Where do I put my goddamn Carhartt and Cabela stickers?!
 
I had that when I first moved out on my own. Makes me want to put one of those screw drivers in your ear and check to see if it's level with the hammer :mad:

I always need a boost! But I do have a little step ladder that's collapsible, which is good with my limited space. But those are pretty handy looking!

The great thing about the tool bag, is all your tools are easily put away, and organized for different tasks. These buck ones are cool tool, I had one for years. They organizers that fit inside too. It's probably overkill, but I am way partial to being able to use something, and put it away, with out opening anything. It's just functional.

oooh! Fancy! If I had more space and did more projects, that bucket thing is kinda cool! I think I'm more partial to hiding shit in drawers though. I have all these stupid acrylic drawers for my make up and craft supplies that stack and make perfect little cubes of tidiness.

I was checking the tool boxes out at HD the other day, but they had a pretty limited selection, so I'll check Lowe's soon and see if I can find one I like. I suck at online shopping because I like to touch stuff... hold it, walk around with it, see how it feels. And verify dimensions! But now I'm leaning towards a plastic one because @Dole ver 2.0 made a good point about it getting heavier than fuck once you start adding all the tools. But goddamn, I love those steel ones! Reminds me of my grandpa, the mechanic :D

Go look at the little bags. They zip up too. You can stack them too. I knew the bucket wasn't going to be your thing. Not mine anymore either.

I was trying to post a picture of my actual tool bag, not what husker would send you in a pm. Fucking file is too big

Sell it (too much work) or donate it.
