Re: What Would you Do ??..??

I've used so many tools back and forth from garage and kitchen...<br /><br /><br />Mixer: Cordless drill with one of the beaters from wife's mixer, cause the drill has more torque.<br /><br />....These mixers are GREAT for mixing small batches of grout in a 1gallon bucket....<br /><br />Bernzomatic is great for roasting peppers. Brother came down the other day hopeing I had an extra 1lb gas tank, didn't... But I had a bulk tank adapter and he hooked up the berzo to the bbq grill tank and still made pasta :) <br /><br /><br />What I really like about the above photo: Looks like you didn't even bother cleaning the grease off first, and I bet it tasted GREAT!

I'll have you know that they are "improved goat trails" here, and the locals don't need any crackers to open and eat their lobstahs. :p

Yeah we just use tin snips or aviation shears to open them up.<br /><br />Hey, it takes years of careful planning to get our roads in that shape....kind of rustic!<br /><br />Bob

Re: What Would you Do ??..??

I recall walking into my work shop and found the general manager cutting a rack of lamb chops on my table saw one day. I just shook my head and got the task of cleaning gobs of meat off my saw. YUK! Later he offered me some, of course I passed on the offer, I know what had been run across that saw before. <br /><br />Bondo, I wondered where my channels went! I find that they grow legs as well. Good post!
