Funny CL ad
« on: July 27, 2014, 06:54:44 AM »
Posting here as the ad copy is pretty funny, especially to tool guys !!

http://tampa.craigslist.org/pnl/tls/4573217489.html


Bought the planer years ago and made the stand for it. Never got around to attaching the motor. Some assembly required and some cleanup. The photos show the garage of an aging doofus who started too many projects and finished fewer and then moved to Minnesota leaving a lifetime of compulsive buying behind him for a poor stupid friend to sell. TAKE THIS AS A WARNING. Or you can do the same and have your wife leave you and then live alone with your old smelly dog and cigars and be happy until you croak in the middle of your overstocked garage,

I have two Craftsman made ones. Bought them both for $11.00 and they are both sitting where i put them about three years ago. I don't need them, but i didn't want to see the scrap metal guy get them.

Come to think of it, croaking in the middle of an overstocked garage whilst smelling of cigars and old dog sounds a lot more appealing than most of the alternatives. :sad:
My friends call me Bob. My wife calls me a lot worse.

Except my collections include rocks & minerals, old tools, gems, music boxes, hammers, instruments for grandkids to play, nice boxes to put things in, and chairs.
