Title: In some ways we are blessed.
Post by: Hymes Inc. on June 13, 2016, 10:07:44 PM

My neighbor/cousin has a weakness for tools. The bigger the better. Since his garage is full, I now have a Ranger tire changer, Coats wheel balancer, and a brand new last week Eastman plasma cutter. He has also bought various other hand/power tools for my garage. All I really have to do is mention that I would really like to have "insert tool here" and seems like eventually it shows up. I've been talking about a taller shop with a car lift next to my current shop but no dice yet  :evil:

Can I be his friend too  :kiss:
He'd be welcome to have supervised visits with the tools :thumb:

Jeez Hymes, I just know someone will be childish enough to make a silly comment about your post, I'm trying to make sure it's not me !

I used to live next door to 3 brothers that I designated the "Toy Boys".  Drag boats, lifted trucks, a parade of hot rods coming and going, cool motorcycles and every tool known to man, mostly Snap-On plus various salvaged and refurbished machine tools.  I cried when the oldest brother got a divorce and he had to sell the house and move.
