Well I thought it was funny. I guess you had to be there.

Last night I was in Wal-Mart picking up some odds and sods with my eleven year old daughter. We got some sugar cookies, shop towels, Simple Green, toweling rags, some chips and some cosmetics for my daughter. We’re standing at the check out and there’s a guy and his wife behind me. “Oh you...

What a cool project. Good luck with that. I guess as far as paint goes, if it was me I'd accept that if I use the tool box, it's going to get scratched. I'd go with red Rustoleum, or similar, and don't worry too much about the shade.

SHMBO = she who must be obeyed :bounce:.

I can only marvel at some of the garages on this site......you guys are very lucky. Here are a few tips for the small garage owner, on a budget, who shares his man zone with the rest of the family. Things that have worked for me. 1. Keep it Clean I've no room for trash. If in doubt I throw it...

I've trawled the net myself, but was unable to find the under cabinet kitchen knife / cook book four bar hinges for sale anywhere. I even e-mailed a hinge manufacturer and he didn't sell them or know where I could buy them. The drop down tray in the picture looks like a good alternative and can...

I made it a condition of my wife buying a cat, that she cleans up after it. I would say, six months and your problems are over :wtf:.
