Scutigera coleoptrata, aka the common house centipede. They're ****ing gross and scary fast. They freak me right out.

haha, i make a relatively modest amount doing unix/network administration. i just keep my living expenses low so that i can waste away all of my cash on bikes and stupid **** like SFII arcade machines.

We get them too, but my cat eats them. I find random legs here and there in my basement.

I buy a lot of older road/MTB bikes at thrift stores, garage sales, CL, etc. for cheap. I put the time and money needed to get them on the road and resell them on CL. I also sell frames/forks or parts to people that want to do their own work. Previous customers of mine ask if I have something they are looking for first instead of checking out the LBS. I sold three frames/forks, some parts to go with one of them, and a complete fixed gear conversion within the last few days.

Are you refering to the cheap harbor-freight T-handle hex set on the table? I never use those. I have a Bondhus hex wrench set that is on the Park stand and a Craftsman 3/8 drive hex socket set hangin on the peg board.

chunts 05-13-07 11:49 PM

This is in my garage, but when I move in August, I will probably be in an apartment without a garage, so I'll need something relatively compact and easy to move around. Hence, the wheeled toolbox with a workspace on top and the four bike rack. Also, my wheel truing stand is in the living room right now because I like to watch TV while building and truing wheels, which I've been doing recently.

Yeah, I meant in reference to my world of carpentry. The last thing I cut on the laguna bandsaw was a 12" high and about 12" wide piece of foam crown molding for a show. our laguna table saw has been out of commission for probably a total of a month since january, such a piece of junk.
