Improvised toolbox


Cool tip from local rag:
Got one of those old "high powered" boxy flashlights that doesn't work anymore with a big square battery you can't recharge and costs too much to replace? Don't toss it, toss the battery and fill the (usually waterproof) insides with small essential tools, screwdrivers, pliers, adjustable wrenches, even a small maglite. And/or 1st aid supplies; bandaids, antibiotic cremes etc. It makes a very compact little kit that fits almost anywhere on a vehicle or boat and doesn't attract attention... which brings to mind other uses, but don't go there...:tumble:




All my childhood I wanted to be older. Now I\'m older and this chitn sucks.
