Rob Browne Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Just back from a visit to the family farm and the car was MUCH heavier on the way back. Lots of scarifier points, plow disks, broken tynes, old hammers, files, rasps and coil springs. Stopped on the way back at an abandoned railway and pulled a heap of spikes to play with as well. Now to find the time to do something with them. Its a problem I am happy to have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark G Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 Woodeye, along those same line, my Mother-in-law asked me what I wanted for Christmas. She thought I was joking when I asked for COAL...... :):) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 Deb makes a point of getting me a lump of coal every Christmas. If I live to a hundred I should have enough for a day's forging. The best one is a goat carved out of coal. Frosty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasPowers Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 Frosty; do you think she's trying to tell you something? My wife gave me a SantaClaus painted on a lump of coal and the resemblence is striking... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 She's ALWAYS trying to tell me something. If I could figure out what I'm sure I could negotiate myself into something I want. Unfortunately . . . Frosty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
