Title: Re: i aught to know better Post by: BA-IV on October 28, 2012, 09:04:22 pm Your wife will learn to stop asking. Mine got tired of it being put together backwards or missing a useless part or two, so now she just gets her mom to help her, and they actually read the instructions.
BUT when I was putting it together, the crap worked great, everything from China has a buch of useless parts in it anyways.

It will be the next tool you need so don't throw it too far ;D Of course your wife and/or kids will come outside right before you use the @#$% tool so they see and hear you and then give you that look that lets you know you have lost you mind rolleyes

Lol my mom is good at that kinda stuff I don't see how she does it ;DTitle: Re: i aught to know better Post by: dub on October 28, 2012, 09:38:41 pm You are right there Charles. I always get the stuff that just don't work right for me. I actually get out a folding chair and put some Cokes on ice. When I start to get mad I go sit down, grab a coke, and think. When I do that a break fewer things.

Yep, iv learned to do that workin on these multi-millon $ helicopters. The gov dont like it when chit gets broken due to flaring tempers. If i run into a bind, i climb down, clean n put my tools up, take a 10-15 break n then get my tools out n try again, or ask for help.
