So last weekend I was in Fort Smith Arkansas working on out rental house. Finding myself in need of supplies I decide to make the trek across town to Home Depot. I went in for pig penis' and drywall screws but I just can't help myself and soon wandered over to the electrician dept. where they keep the Klein tools which as y'all already know are the tools of my trade. I ended up with 2 new big arse screwdrivers one + and one - a new pair of needle nose pliers withe the 12ga stripper build in and a big bad arse pair of yellow handled linesman pliers. I have got to keep my fat butt outta Home Depot, it seems that a can't get out of there with out giving them a $100 dollar bill for tools.

I heard of this place that sometimes sells Klein tools at a good discount, the stores often have a 3 ball chandelier looking thing near the door or on a sign.
If you're addicted might as well save a few bucks for the next fix.:-)

I celebrated by buying $90 worth of tobacco. 🎃🤠 |

Good tools, if you don't really need them (my case) will put you in the poor house really quick. I love new tools!

I have at least 2 of every tool ever made,therefore I refuse to buy anymore tools. Hence since I can never find what I need, I have stopped working on stuff. 🎃🤠

You're working on a nice collection. I justify my tool buying by saying "my tools make me money."
Side note: I need to buy a 5 gallon bucket of 10mm 3/8 drive sockets. They always seem to go missing.

They always seem to go missing. check your sock drawer... those lost sockets somehow morph into extra socks with out mates... or is the tangle of wire clothes hanger in the closet that the sockets morph into... anyway good luck!! |
