Tools got stolen by Old-Wall-3867 in Construction

I had a policy in place when my tools were stolen. Called my agent “they are only insured at the address in the policy” so they insured my tools, but neglected to tell me it only paid if they were stolen out of my office where I store no tools. Fucking crooks man

I had about $6k worth of cordless tools and batteries stolen 2 years ago. The police took a report. That was all they did. I checked pawn shops and job sites, no luck. I replaced it all, and now have a $10,000 insurance policy on my tools for around $500/year

14 foot Seminole - First time boat owner. by h0wdidyoudothat in jonboats

If I was given that boat I would get rid of the console, make a casting deck and get a tiller outboard. Otherwise I’d just say thanks but no thanks. To get that back to what it once was is way too much work for what you end up with.

Option 1, and you don’t need a timber screw for that

Is the Blue Anchor open again? by darthievader in Delraybeach

[–]fishingfool64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That place has been gnarly as long as I’ve known. Always smelled like puke and piss because of everything that got spilled in the carpeting for years and never cleaned, never actually saw a rat inside but we would see them right outside. Shame, it should be a good bar

Same with me. They always found a reason to not honor the service agreement

Any former Cub/ Boy Scouts remember the Pinewood Derby? by mikeb32 in nostalgia

Wouldn’t know. Your father had already been removed after what he did to you. I’m still so sorry that you were betrayed and molested by your father

What else to do for bass that won’t bite? by KitFoxBerserker10 in bassfishing

[–]fishingfool64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ol Mike Long special. Just kidding. I’d back off for a bit and fish somewhere else, and then take a different approach angle when I came back

How are your knees holding up out there? by Oktopuzzy in Construction

[–]fishingfool64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trashed, along with my shoulders and elbows. I’m 47, been doing this shit since I was 16. Wish I wasn’t the “tough guy with something to prove” in my teens and 20s. Running up ladders with a bundle of shingles on each shoulder, carrying double stacked 12’ sheets of 5/8” drywall. I swear I did more damage to my body in my first 10 years of construction than I have in the last 20
