What did you buy this week?

[scootr]

Tell us where they are in a week please, update required
I have lost so many that I think I keep the eyeglass places in business.

You and me both. Ones I haven't lost I sat on or knelt on or stepped on.

It doesn't matter what I buy... If USPS is delivering it, it will get lost and be late. Every time

USPS will always be late, ever since the new and improved distribution center went in in Richmond, but rarely lost.
FedX will be on time... they just deliver to the wrong house 70% of the time.
For us, UPS is the best, they are late occasionally but rarely deliver to the wrong house.

Xmas bonus time ,plus saving money especially by doing quite a few diy projects/ repairs. after much debate, and research on here and other websites bought a new 520 Honda pioneer sxs to replace our old but seemingly bullet proof 2015 500 pioneer sxs. For hobby farm work and mapping. It's 50 " wide and Glad it has a small but useful dump bed instead of rack like 2015, wife is happy it has a selectable fully automatic transmission and I'm happy it has selectable more traditional paddle shifting mode as well. Awaiting delivery of aftermarket accessories then the fun making it more useful begins. I can say already say it seems you can turn the steering wheel much easier at slow speeds in 4wd than our old 500. Both are Without power steering . I think I need a bigger garage lol.

Makes me feel like some of you are my long lost brothers. Today I bought another Klein 11(or whatever the count is) in-one screwdriver. ....

I was at Menards last night and started looking at those... I have three already!

I have a dozen laying around. Some are missing tips though.

I have a mega-pro that has all the bits I need, but it doesn't have the nut drivers that the 13-in-1 tool has.

I have the 13-in-1 tool that has the nut drivers, but not the security torx bits I need.

What I need is a tool like the 13-in-1 for the nut driver capability, plus in-handle storage for some torx security bits and allen wrenches.

2 phillips
2 standard
t-20 + t-25 security
and 4 different sizes of allen wrenches.

That would make my day.

I'm thinking a Kline 32517HD might do the job. I'll have to look closer.

I just need to be able to find the stuff I already have.

That's why I have 3 basin wrenches.

Sounds alot like my wifes garden. $$$ thousands worth of raised beds, top soil, manure, etc to grow probably $50 worth of vegetables . Now she wants a $3,000 fence around it.

But then again, i remember the time we got a cute BLM donkey rescue for $50.00, than threw down $4,000 for panels, feeders,water trough and fencing.

Sounds like fishing

When i had employees, i had a full set of tools, drills, cords, rotohmmers, ladders, job boxes, etc.

When i retired, i STILL have them. Never know when i may need 3 hole hogs on a weekend job

I ordered a dust collection system from Oneida for my woodworking shop. Won't ship for 2 weeks.

I got a rack for the back of the bike. Amazon.com: Xitomer Motorcycle Racks Fit for CRF300L Rear Rack Fit for CRF300L Rally 2021-2025 CRF300L Enduro Series Rear Luggage Rack : Automotive

And I ordered a couple of tires

I was in for quite the shock today at the electrical supply house. 14/2 romex, which was closing onto $180 per 250 ft roll a few years ago was $79.00 today….

I didn’t think it was ever going down. And 3/4” sch 40 conduit was $3.10 per 10’ stick. I was paying nearly $9/ stick earlier this year.

Wonder what the reason is…..everything else is more expensive…..

Finally the Granberg

arrived after sending a Mail Search request.

You can remove so little material, so consistently across all of the teeth, and get a razor sharp edge.

That will save $ on chains

Its nice. Easy to hit the 25deg angle across the top and 10deg angle in the gullet of the tooth. Also allows precision raker grinding. Used the grinding stone lube and it cut fast and cool

A new pair of waterproof, composite toe Double H work boots! The best fitting boots I’ve ever had. I have a work pair, and a pair for church. Decent discount.

Went up to the Priefert Outlet and picked up a 60' Premier panel round pen. Each 12' panel weighs 90 lbs. Hopefully our 1500 lb horses won't tear it up.
