[soltz]

That sign would be right home in my shop [cl

 

[bob w]

Amen, brother.

 

[Couper]

Yep....been there, done that!

 

[earthman]

Normal rate of progress in my garage and i seldom break bolts

 

[lazarat]

It is amazing how the simplest things can become a major ordeal, and yet in a lot of cases one can breeze through a major project and turns out to be so simple that you wish you did it sooner.

 

[Rockable]

For sure! That's why no one should ever quote a fixed price for doing something on an old car. Charge by the hour and let the chips fall where they may.

 

[zzrodder]

Definitely should get that sign for my workshop....[cl

 

[Bamamav]

Happened to me many times.....

 

[DozerII]

The sick feeling you get when your pulling on a wrench when the bolts starts to twist off

 

[redidbull]

My favorite has to be a front disc brake job. An hour maybe? Nope lug nut gets stuck and stud starts to spin. Jim

I can break anything. My oxy-acetylene torch has prevented a lot of snaps for sure...

Here`s another one for ya...

Yes....and even worse when that bolt is a hardened allen cap screw and you've used the wrong or worn ratchet driven allen socket. A button head as well with nothing to grab. Not so much fun having to drill out a hardened bolt.

Welcome to my world after yelling MF'er as loud as I can 3 or 4 times! LOL

That usually prompts the wife to come running thinking I wacked a finger off.

Well she used to run....now she hobbles, poor girl.

At least she still comes to check on you.

 

[05snopro440]

At least she still comes to check on you.

Agreed, half the time my other half assumes I'm already dead.

Yah....she's a good egg. I think I'll keep her )

Oh boy....and dead's nooooo good.
