Yammer Dan Posted August 6, 2009 Share #1 Posted August 6, 2009 Misplaced my Color-tune somehow. It will turn up I think and then I will remember putting it there. The Warden and I turned my Parts Room upside down and no luck. And when the Warden searches SHE SEARCHES!!! I can't get away with nothing. Have looked everywhere I can thunk of. I HATE LOOSING TOOLS!!! Especially ones that cost almost a hundred bucks!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilvrT Posted August 6, 2009 Share #3 Posted August 6, 2009 Not only do I hate losing tools (generally by misplacing them) but I hate it even more when I lend a tool (or anything for that matter) and that person looses them (or fails to return them) GGRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

massey130 Posted August 6, 2009 Share #5 Posted August 6, 2009 what i hate is when a socket drops off and lands it a spot too small for the hand to grab. I had this just happen. i could not find my 3 prong grab it tool - doh - so i taped a magnet to a stick & retrieved the wayward socket that way.

massey130 Posted August 6, 2009 Share #7 Posted August 6, 2009 Oh, & to SilvrT's comment - i don't lend tools. if a buddy needs one, i come with it, do the work & bring my tool home. i learned long ago that there are those who don't take of my stuff like i take of my stuff. this a big soap box of mine - so i will stop here.

Hazenson Posted August 6, 2009 Share #10 Posted August 6, 2009 I got in the habit of not even asking to borrow stuff , One time long ago I borrowed a very new push mower from my father in law and I hit a small pipe that was buried in the ground. Usually a quick fix ( change the shear pin) but as My luck would have it, it actually bent the shaft, a very expensive repair. I fixed it myself but the new shaft costs almost as much as a whole new motor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dale in Louisiana I have a very hard time refusing to lend things to my kids .... NOBODY else. For quite a while I failed to lay down the ground rules to them... once I did, I got stuff back... but time passes and somehow the rules get forgotten ... then I have to impose them again BUT, that surely doesn't always ensure that what got lost when the rules were forgotten will get returned. For some strange reason, the kids (and they are all grown) seem to adopt this mentality of "what belongs to mommy and daddy will eventually belong to me so I guess I can keep it indefinately" LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBoyinMS Posted August 6, 2009 Share #16 Posted August 6, 2009 Ditto on not loaning/not borrowing. That's one reason I have so much 'stuff'; I always buy it if I need it. When I was a dumb 'young man' I would loan things and not even think about it; just expect it to be taken care of and returned. I guess that stopped when I was looking for an expensive large socket a few years after I loaned it out and remembered that I had loaned it. But I couldn't remember to who.

DragonRider Posted August 7, 2009 Share #17 Posted August 7, 2009 So Skid, you sure it didnt get left behind at your place, and you thought it was your carbtune that you won at Vogel:stirthepot:, and threw it in you bag,..................now you have a matched set. CarbTune & ColorTune.....................:stickpoke: .I never saw one to even know exactly what I'm looking for, but I have searched the garage and it haven't turned up there either.....

Yammer Dan Posted August 7, 2009 Author Share #18 Posted August 7, 2009 Don't think I loaned it. Wasted another hour looking. Then took dash out of "Ugly" Hope I can remember where all these things go back!! Can't remember where my tools are!! I got parts scattered all over. Warden isn't home "Ugly is missing a lot of screws. Makes me wonder. Was only showing 19k when I got her... Back to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Condor Posted August 7, 2009 Share #24 Posted August 7, 2009 It'll show up. The Color-tunes are a PITA to used anyway. I'm still looking for my Beckman Multi-meter. It's around somewhere, and thank God for Harbor Freight... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
