I know I dropped a 1/2" deep well into the muck in my truck while I was
swapping alternators in buffalo... does that count? I still want to
know where that thing fell that I couldn't see it or grab it with my
magnet. oh well.

more importantly, I missing my Craftsman 1/2" ratchetting combo wrench
(don't know if that was left at Jon's or if I lost it here) and my
Gerber multi-tool pliers thing.

I've got my Craftsmans. if they're Durabilt or some schisse like that,
they're mine and you can feel free to melt them down into something
useful.

don't have either.

hehe =) my 1/2" set is mostly SK, so it's easy to keep separate. but
throw in the Craftsman metrics, swivel and extensions and it gets
confusing knowing it's all mine =)

I could chew up some time tomorrow engraving, but I think I have better
things to do. a splotch of paint would be much quicker and get less
argument from the Acceptors of Broken Tools.

day after tomorrow.

I certainly will, and I think I'll try to get some video of load/
leave, arrive/ unload, for posterity's sake.
