23.01.2022 TOOLS EXPLAINED DRILL PRESS : A tall upright machine useful for suddenly snatching flat metal bar stock out of your hands so that it smacks you in the chest and... flings your beer across the room, denting the freshly-painted project which you had carefully set in the corner where nothing could get to it. WIRE WHEEL : Cleans paint off bolts and then throws them somewhere under the workbench with the speed of light. Also removes fingerprints and hard-earned calluses from fingers in about the time it takes you to say, 'Oh sh*t' DROP SAW : A portable cutting tool used to make studs too short. PLIERS : Used to round off bolt heads. Sometimes used in the creation of blood-blisters. BELT SANDER : An electric sanding tool commonly used to convert minor touch-up jobs into major refinishing jobs. HACKSAW : One of a family of cutting tools built on the Ouija board principle... It transforms human energy into a crooked, unpredictable motion, and the more you attempt to influence its course, the more dismal your future becomes. VISE-GRIPS : Generally used after pliers to completely round off bolt heads. If nothing else is available, they can also be used to transfer intense welding heat to the palm of your hand. OXYACETYLENE TORCH : Used almost entirely for lighting on fire various flammable objects in your shop. Also handy for igniting the grease inside the wheel hub out of which you want to remove a bearing race.. TABLE SAW : A large stationary power tool commonly used to launch wood projectiles for testing wall integrity. HYDRAULIC FLOOR JACK : Used for lowering an automobile to the ground after you have installed your new brake shoes, trapping the jack handle firmly under the bumper. BAND SAW : A large stationary power saw primarily used by most shops to cut good aluminum sheet into smaller pieces that more easily fit into the trash can after you cut on the inside of the line instead of the outside edge. TWO-TON ENGINE HOIST : A tool for testing the maximum tensile strength of everything you forgot to disconnect. PHILLIPS SCREWDRIVER : Normally used to stab the vacuum seals under lids or for opening old-style paper-and-tin oil cans and splashing oil on your shirt; but can also be used, as the name implies, to strip out Phillips screw heads. STRAIGHT SCREWDRIVER : A tool for opening paint cans. Sometimes used to convert common slotted screws into non-removable screws and butchering your palms. PRY BAR : A tool used to crumple the metal surrounding that clip or bracket you needed to remove in order to replace a 50 cent part. HOSE CUTTER : A tool used to make hoses too short. HAMMER : Originally employed as a weapon of war, the hammer nowadays is used as a kind of divining rod to locate the most expensive parts adjacent the object we are trying to hit. UTILITY KNIFE : Used to open and slice through the contents of cardboard cartons delivered to your front door; works particularly well on contents such as seats, vinyl records, liquids in plastic bottles, collector magazines, refund checks, and rubber or plastic parts. Especially useful for slicing work clothes, but only while in use. ADJUSTABLE WRENCH: aka "Another hammer", aka "the Swedish Nut Lathe", aka "Crescent Wrench". Commonly used as a one size fits all wrench, usually results in rounding off nut heads before the use of pliers. Will randomly adjust size between bolts, resulting in busted buckles, curse words, and multiple threats to any inanimate objects within the immediate vicinity. Son of a bitch TOOL : Any handy tool that you grab and throw across the garage while yelling 'Son of a b*tch' at the top of your lungs. It is also, most often, the next tool that you will need.

09.01.2022 Hi everyone, well we are open for business and we cant wait to see you all again! We hope that you have made it through Covid-19 with as little stress as possi...ble. Mick has been busy around the park fixing up the gardens and generally making the park look even more amazing. I have been working at Montcler aged care looking after some lovely people. With the new Covid-19 regulations there are a few changes around the park. There is a 4-page deceleration form for each booking to fill out. This to help us protect the health and well-being of all our guests. There is hand sanitiser for you to use on entering the office and only one person in the office at a time when booking in. There are more signs around the park reminding you of all the hand washing, social distancing, and steps on how to stop the spread of Covid-19. We have put more soap stations around the park and we are still waiting on hand sanitiser dispensers to arrive. We have closed the middle toilet and shower to maintain social distancing regulations. There are Covid-19 information books in each unit, the laundry and camp kitchen with all the Covid-19 information in it. So please come and visit us. See you soon! Thanks, Vanessa and Mick. One of our customers found a massive 92 carat Sapphire a couple of weeks ago while out "specking" in the fossicking fields. What will you find? See you soon thanks Vanessa and Mick.

08.01.2022 "Tasman and I work on a dairy farm and had set a plan to go out fencing for the day. Prior to the video, Tasman had never seen a rammer, as we used to use a sle...dgehammer for the post. I saw an opportunity and handed him the hammer, and away he went. Five minutes later, I handed him a rammer without telling him how to use it. I just said Use this, its much heavier, and away he went." : Danny-Ray Wano via ViralHog
