I made a cigar rest from a used cutter.
Am I the only one who’s thinking,… “Are you my 5yr old grandson?” I’ve been assuming you were older. Well, congrats on outliving most of us. (There I go assuming again.)

(Disclaimer: Does not come with cutter, cigar, or chair that has a side table with a slot)
My son and his girlfriend nabbed it thinking they were going to make a go cart out of it 🤦♂️ It will be returned after the chickens are too big for it.

Mowing season is approaching, I have to mow 5 yards plus a lake lot. Saw this on U tube, only took 5 minute to sharpen a really dull set of three blades. Will save me a lot of time and I only had to buy a bolt and the lock down.
Don't let the wife know what you spend on guns, ammo or cigars.
Was seeking to create a visual sense of motion and a intellectual suggestion of the Vietnam war with this piece. War never leaves those who experienced it.
I'm currently working on a mixed media piece about the mass shootings of the grandparents in Buffalo and the children and teachers in Texas. This new work will take a while as there are a lot of visual elements that I have to suggest without being to literate.

So you are OK with your son being a common petty criminal? Obviously, you are, since you posted about it on social media.
Not every petty criminal turns into a felon, but every felon started out as a petty criminal.....

You ok my man? No need to be a hardo towards a contributing member and putting him on blast publicly like that. A simple PM voicing your concern to the OP may have been more appropriate. Guarantee you've done much worse in life then swipe a shopping cart. But with the price of wood being what it is, I guess it is cheaper to build a glass house.
Thanks for your everlasting contribution to this forum!
The world has really gone downhill when we openly flaunt a disregard for law & order. A PM. Why? He posted his son's crime openly and of his own free will for all the world to see. So why hide a reply in a PM? I guess that our society has sunk to the level of "Awww shucks it's just a shopping cart." and fallen off of the idea that it is still a crime big or small.
Glass house principal is making an excuse for the criminal and doesn't apply in any shape to my original comment. In fact this attitude breeds more of these "quality of life" type crimes.
Do I think it is the biggest crime ever? Of course not! It also shouldn't be treated with impunity and ignored. The stolen property should be returned, not after you have run out of uses for the stolen cart and son punished appropriately.

This kind of stuff happened back in the day as well, bud. This shopping cart does not represent a new low or anything remotely like it. You are overreacting.

How much over the speed limit did you drive to work today?
A silly question that actually proves my point. How many mph over the speed limit before we care that it is a crime? 5, 10, 50 I guess you can pick your level of lawlessness according to your pocketbook & not your morals.
A quick question for you. How much can you steal in $ amount before it is punishable? $5, $10, $50? Are you going to justify a property crime against yourself with the silly position that you sped to work that morning?
You are absolutely correct this is not new. Common theft has been around since dawn of time. What is new is posting about crime on social media. Everybody seems ok with petty theft. At what point does it become a crime?
Should he ask his son to shoplift $100 (wild guess with cart value) from the same grocery store?
I'll repeat the question. Should he ask his son to shoplift $100 (wild guess with cart value) from the same grocery store?
Did your answer change and do you think it is just a laughable petty crime.

When your wife decides to buy new chicks at the last minute…you throw together a brooder from what you have around the garage.
You had a shopping cart in your garage? What did you do with all of the newspapers and soda cans?
My son and his girlfriend nabbed it thinking they were going to make a go cart out of it 🤦♂️ It will be returned after the chickens are too big for it.
I don't believe you
You sure it's not going to end up your next grill?
Now why would I do that when I already have a perfectly good grill cooler combo in the backyard?
Wait…you guys don’t have shopping carts? 👀
That looks like Satan's toilet...

How much do you charge to sharpen our blades, Dave?
Made this a number of years ago. Title is "And The War Keeps Rolling Along"
Wow, that's pretty powerful.
