Those non-working engineer types

Post by JK »

I just changed out the safety on my furnace and much to my despair found myself chanting as I looked at the fittings:


"Lefty loosie, rightie tightie" :oops:
But, I did diagnose the fact correctly that the safety was weak and that was why it was wheezing, like me on a hill!! :wink:

Steam engineer, eh...me thinks too much time behind the desk has happened to me!!

At least you can still find your spanners when you need them!

:oops: I had to buy a pipe wrench. My kid has relocated all of my tools.He says he put them away. Too bad it is in his shed.
I am to the point I am hiding pliers and screwdrivers in my underwear drawer. :roll:
