5 V Help!!!???

[breaktru]

Mini lathe he's got.
Dremel he's got.
Drill press he's got.
Mig welder he's got.
He loves tinkering it's just hard for him to do these days, and his 40 years (or so) soldering iron just wasn't working too well.
I make sure he never runs shy of batteries and connectors.

I'm drooling here. Mini Lathe, Drill press, Mig welder.

But I'm sure that all of those tools are worn out now. get the new ones for him and send me his old junk ones.

Sure, I'll get right on that.

What can I say, at his age he has just about everything so I got desperate when buying gifts. LOL

And we never call our projects "tinkering".
(therapy perhaps, but tinkering is beneath us)

And we NEVER make mistakes either.

When an apprentice make a mistake,,, Everyone sees it.
When a Journeyman makes a mistake,,, he has learned how to cover it up.
When the 'ol master makes a mistake,,, Everyone else tries to copy it.............

Back to serious,,, Let us know how the re-work is going. post lots of pics. we'd all be glad to help.

[Gummy Bear]

A good wife 'll do that ya know.

OK she did hit me for that one but...

It'll be a bit, I ordered the soldering iron off ebay (I know bad bad).

 

[Gummy Bear]

I have had good luck with E-Bay,,,,, so while we wait, we'll just hang out here and crack jokes.
Ask your hubby if he heard the one about the Priest, the Rabi and the Mechanic.... uhhh never mind.

Well there is still time and more goodies to gather. LOL

He never out right asked but was real good at hints. Of course dropping a bug into the kids ear didn't hurt either.
Of course Java that means you'd have to get married and have kids!!!

 

[Gummy Bear]

I use to tape pics of the new tool that I wanted to the milk jug or to the inside of the washing machine lid.

 

[jj2]

No no Gummy you tape it to the milk which means it was in her way, or a wash machine and she was probably washing your clothes!!!
This is not good. Now if you taped it to a new car, you might have gotten what you wanted.

 

[Gummy Bear]

you do got a point there.

BTW. What's your hubby's name (or handle) I mean, you can call him late for dinner but,,, what should we call him?

 

[jj2]

Well his name is RW but his handle (CB) is Hawkeye.

As for the forum, he just uses this one when he is on but that is rare.

 

[Gummy Bear]

cool, Hey Hawkeye, glad to meet ya.

 

[jj2]

He says hi.........:~}

One more hitch: You got to wait for the kids to grow up, and I mean through teenage hood, before they'll be any help.

Well thats sucks. Maybe i will have to go back to the original plan and wait to marry for love. Then if i get tools on top of that it will be a bonus

 

[jj2]

First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes baby in a carriage.
Then dirty diapers, the terrible twos, pre adolescents, teenager, college, and then tools.

It's worth the wait though. LOL
