Title: hecho en Mexico
Post by: strik9 on August 10, 2018, 10:20:48 PM

I have been doing a serious quantity of painting on the new construction and realized it made the older parts of the house look bad.

  So to treat a tool addiction for a crummy job I got me a new 6" scraper putty knife.

  Stainless blade and hard nylon block handle it should last just short of forever.  These products are not brand named but are made in little home brew 'factorys' in little backwater places.  Like the sandals and clay cooking pots really.

   Good stuff in this case.

So you managed to scrape up a new tool.

A good one at that.  It should survive being borrowed and returned a year later.  Even if stored in a bucket of water most of that time.

  Wanna come over and use it for me?

I would be happy to just don't want to deprive you of the joy of using a new tool.

GG Meeting in Mexico!
I'd have to pass on the food though... since I had the gallbladder removed my stomach is pretty fussy about what it allows me to eat... well... more like fussy about what it allows to stay in my body for any amount of time.
