It's going to [MENTION=147272]Glennfordx4[/MENTION]. I just found out from a higher authority (namely wife and daughter) that I will not have access to a car on Monday. Looks like I'll have to haul that pile of crap to the post office on a bike, :eek:

In between the time that you are building a frame, please add me back to the list, @gugie - this game just never gets old!
Added. What could possibly go wrong? |
Another reason to call this the Box O' Crap: week after shipping the box, finishing touches on a new build... "Crap! Why didn't I grab that one thing out of the box?!" :thumb:

Box is off. Here is my treasure trove of crap: http://bikeforums.net/attachment.php...hmentid=528363 I've been needing a tool for a brooks saddle for a while, the shifters and FD will do nicely for 2 different builds I'm working on, and I couldn't resist the guaranteed built with box o'crap parts stickers that @noglider added to the box. Those are the coolest things ever; even better than a chiquita banana sticker as a framer sticker, :). |
I got nervis and had crapout. Take back on r.ip.

I have a Velo-Orange tool, which I believe works well (enough) on my Brooks and Ideale saddles. I've yet to find any wrench which will get at the adjuster nut on my Record saddle. Might have to grind something down. |

Hey everybody,
The BOC landed yesterday afternoon & the box was blown out big time, they delivered it in a mail tub. We had some really strong storms move thru here Tuesday causing tons of damage to the area and we just got our power back yesterday afternoon but a lot of our county is still without. We had more damage then when Sandy came thru here toppling trees & houses. I hurt both my hands when my 6' high, 12' wide vinyl gates blew past there stops and I had to go out in the height of it all and wrangle both of them closed & tie them together which in 80mph wind was very hard to do and now I have trigger finger on my left ring finger and feels like my right wrist is sprained. I spent all day yesterday on my roof removing my Sat Dish which only had one of the 4 lag bolts left in it & it was dangling just above our main power connection on the roof peek and patching the holes left in my roof because of this, which really made my hands worse ( DirecTV told me no one can get here till July 3rd) It now is so bad I am having a hard time drinking my coffee lol, anyway give me a extra day or two and I will have this on it's way to awfulwaffle ( need his address also ). My neighbors all got hit worse then us with one having a big pine tree fall on their house taking power lines with it and right next door they lost 6' of their roofing. Strong T storms like the ones that came thru here are new to us, never had time to prepare and we were really caught off guard.

Wow, Glenn. Hope you (and your community) heal quickly. Whatever else it is, timely delivery in the face if significant obstacles would probably be categorized as a first world problem.

Thanks for the well wishes a lot of people need it, I can't get over the amount damage these storms caused and the fact that we had no clue it was bearing down on us until it was to late to do anything about it. I was sitting in the house working on a fan with the AC on and my blackout curtains all closed when it hit I was talking to my best friend who was having a new 6' high vinyl fence installed when the storm hit and we both ended the call when I saw my first gate blow open & he had a huge tree come down on the new fence they were installing. I am going to go check his place out today as he had a lot of his neighbors trees coming down causing a lot of property damage to him.

Hey guys/gals,
I PMed awfulwaffle when I posted above which I think was last Thurs and still haven't got a reply, I have the box all reinforced and just about ready to tape it up and get it out of here but need to know who I am sending it to, Please Crapmaster tell me what to do lol. Glenn |
I've been watching with anticipation turning to dread and panic as we've narrowly dodged losses of the Box lately. I'm only 2 down the list, friends, let's not lose it now!
