WTH? wrench
« on: August 25, 2014, 11:41:09 AM »
For sale on eBay at the moment. Surely this must rank in the top ten all time "What the h*ll was he thinking?" awards.

A waste of a collectable wrench. Sad, i just can't look at this any more. Old tools are dead to me now. I guess i will collect dirt or rocks now.

I've been thinking that maybe feathers would be good.  Much lighter than tools, dirt, or rocks and also easy to find :grin:

I've been collecting rocks and minerals, including importing them, for over 30 years now.  I have a side business named Chillzone Minerals. It can be worse thsn tools, seeing a perfect specimen ruined by somebody cutting some part off. Or a specien worth 3x the stone value cut into something ugly.

When you are ready, let me know. I'll tell you this, if you have collected tools and rocks, fossils,  and minerals - you don't have to worry about your house moving during a hurricane,  but you will never want to move, either.
