You bet it counts. Years ago HDNB sent me a copper plate that allowed me to build a top to my 5 gallon gin still.

Picked up 4 50 lb bags of corn yesterday for $9 per bag from a local farmer. He was down to 1 pallet left ... said he's sold over 3000 bags. Its enough for 3 batches of bourbon so it should last me all year.

95% of my mashes use +-70% cornmeal (not cooked, but fine flour grind) and 30% fine ground oatmeal
i used to press, now just let it drip dry
takes about the same amount of time - with a lot less effort

good luck !!! should make a tasty drop!

I just asked the plumber at work yesterday if he had any copper pipe. He said come on out to the truck and let's look. I ended up with 10ft of 3/4 in and 8 ft of 1in type L. And 2 1in x3/4 90's and 2 1x 3/4 reducer. Going to make a new condenser.....

For a very long time now Mrs Cranky has been on me about getting a new toolbox for home. I have pretty much fought her on this telling her I don't need another one.

The other day I was in the garage looking for the source of a mysterious beeping sound and she came out to help look...or maybe it was to give the search party a general location to look should the East tunnel collapse...again :roll:

Seeing my overflowing toolbox, various buckets of random tools, that I will never find, and the general chaos of the garage renewed her desire for me to get better organized with a new toolbox and as fate would have it an auction popped up with 50 or so of them. She grilled me about them and I reluctantly agreed to her buying one or two if they sold cheap enough. She and I have very different ideas of "cheap enough" but I watched the auction and told her when to stop...she didn't listen but I did tell her. :problem:

I have to say, most of the boxes went crazy and sold for far more than I felt they should but there was one box I was willing to let her go higher on and she won the auction with a $310 bid.

I'm not really sure that counts as a bargain, or even a good deal but I now have this nice Snap-On toolbox to put my disorganized mess in
TOOLBOX- C.jpg
It's 36" without the handle, 39 or 40 with it, I'm not sure how Snap-On measures them but new they are somewhere between $2,500 and $4,000. I've never been a big Snap-On fan and never felt a need to have a toolbox that cost more than my car but it is a very nice toolbox even if it doesn't photograph well.

On a related note this was the cheapest Snap-On box that sold in the auction, it actually sold for less than many of the Stanley boxes in the auction.

Tool boxes are like gun safes, buy bigger than you think you need, as they soon become full. This is my old work box from when I was an Acura tech. Its one of 3 tool boxes in my garage. The other two are from my time as an assembler at "The Lazy B" they're much smaller, and mostly full of gun parts and copper bits-n-bobs with some odds and end tools that I could honestly do without.

I find that isn't completely the case. For the 10 years I worked on the road. Mrs Cranky and I traveled in a 1988 Olds Delta 88 so my tools and toolbox had to be both organized and compact. My work box was (and still is) shadowed with foam inserts. When I left a place I could roll my toolbox out to the parking lot, remove the foam inserts with tools in them and neatly place them in the trunk, along with the top box, then lift the bottom box into the X-Cargo topper by myself and be gone in under 5 minutes...Most of the jobs...(or my tolerance for them)...only lasted 3 to 6 months and we always took November and December off. Traveling light and efficiently was important.

I worked with a lot of guys who had huge toolboxes that took many people and often a forklift to get in and out of their truck. I even knew a guy who's toolbox was so big and heavy he had to attach an electric drive motor just to move it. I've seen big boxes cause major problems. One time when there was a mass layoff with dozens of contractors leaving at the same time the guards decided they were going to limit the number of people allowed to drive inside and get there toolboxes on a given day and as I rolled my box past the guard shack I saw some poor guy with one of those giant boxes arguing with the guards about not letting him in to get his box. I loaded mine in the parking lot and was long gone before he got anywhere.

These days those things aren't so important and never really were with my home boxes so it's nice to have a nice size box. The auction actually had some really big boxes but I don't want a single box taking up space, I'd rather have multiple smaller boxes that can easily be moved or be where they are needed the most.

I get that. I moved that home in a thee stall horse trailer. It's perfect in the middle stall. Heavy as shit and yah, now that I'm out of that business, most of its contents rarely get used.

I bought a 20” professional planer that weighed a ton had it forklifted to the center of my trailer over the wheels. Got it home and used another vehicle to drag it toward the back of the trailer. It was on a pallet. Backed the trailer into the outbuilding and used a manual crane hoist over my loft beam to lift it off and lower it in rollers to m9ve it around.

On a related note, when I was picking up my toolbox there was a Tesla there doing the same. while waiting for mine I watched them load it onto what I think was a bike rack. He strapped it on with 2 cheap Harbor Freight ratchet straps.

After loading my box we headed home and for once decided to take the freeway ro save a little time.

That's when we saw this
Tesla.jpeg
This guy was driving down the freeway at 55-60 MPH with this toolbox leaning precariously to the side :crazy: The picture isn't very good because Mrs Cranky isn't very good at using her phones camera. I should have gotten behind him and made her video it for my Youtube channel but I didn't think fast enough. I have to wonder why the guy loading it with the forklift didn't lay it on it's back and center it because he had to know what this guy was doing was not safe.

I recently got 80 inches of unused 2 inch type L copper pipe for FREE.

It’s been sitting in the basement of the building I work in for about a year now (I think it was leftover from a boiler job). I asked the maintenance chief if anyone would miss it. After going down to the basement he replied, “I don’t know anything about any copper pipe down there” and winked :wink: .

I know type L is a little tougher to work with, but hey free is free. Combine that with the $20 decommissioned keg I got this past weekend, and I’m beginning to feel like I’m making progress.

That looks like a Barrel Mill Barrel. Did they have any idea what it previously held? Just beer?
