Got a free craftsman today

[DanInVA]

Sometimes it pays to do yard work. I was raking up the shoulder of the road in the front yard today and heard metal clanging. Looked down and there was a wrench in my pile of leaves. I've got to do yard work more often!

even left in the yard for who knows how long, Craftsman is barely beginning to rust - just amazing!

I thought it was pretty cool. Made in U.S. too. I don't always find tools in my yard, but when I do, I find American! [emoji6]

I was mowing by the street a few weeks ago and found a 9/16" I think it was... Nice and shiny...

If you want, you can come over and rake my yard and look for more wrenches.

Its probably one of your neighbors. He was working on something and the open end spread and slipped one to many times and he bashed his knuckles so he threw it as far as he could

I found a 16mm just like that in the bottom radatior support of a car once.Has a very light coat of rust in one spot

Have you been following Rick Grime's gun farming advice?

I second the motion. as the back yard turns to dust, i find coins, fence brackets, Harley parts and all kinds of **** coming to the surface, everything but that concrete slab where the well head lies, and that's what i need to find.

Maybe try my dowsing skills, but i live on a french drain and the whole yard has water under it, mmm, worth a try.

I love random odds and ends like that that have a good story. My grandfather was out fishing a long time ago, and his boat broke down. He was stuck in the middle of the lake, trying to get his motor running again. Someone in another boat pulled up alongside and gave him a spark plug. He put the spark plug in his motor, fired up, and took off. Grandpa may be long gone, but the lucky spark plug remains, my brother inherited it

I just keep finding car parts in mine.

 

[kiatech]

**** Ill toss a few in the yard, bring your rake and come on over, its all about the hunt right?

Take it to sears and get a newer one for warranty. Do it quick, while they still have US raised panel in the singles wrenches aisle.

 

[Jarhead0408]

Why? That ones still good?

Maybe I missed 'net irony somewhere?
