I realize now that I will have to live one more lifetime and buy more tools to get what I have planned done.
Have a good day!

Know the feeling. The only reason I usually find the old one is because I put the new one in the same spot that I lost the old one.What gets me is finding the right tool that I forgot I already had. Usually find it after buying a new one.
Been there, done that.What gets me is finding the right tool that I forgot I already had. Usually find it after buying a new one.
You're doing it wrong! You have to find a woman that's also a machinist. Think about it. You can be on a date AND still have shop time. Not only that but if things get serious, you can also inherit her tools! What could be better than getting your girlfriend the grinder she always wanted for Christmas. Maybe and engagement shaper? Don't worry though, plenty of us on here have made the same mistake. Check into it. Maybe they have a dating site for machinist? "you don't have to be lonely at machinist only dot com".I live with this the addiction!!!! It's a real struggle I sometimes think a drug habit would be cheaper. I've been a single father of 2 for the last 3 years just recently started dating an a amazing woman but man does she get into my shop time!!!!! Just what I've spent on dates the last few months I could have bought the dro I've been to cheap to buy or the indexer I've been putting off.
Bwhahaha I live in a small pond!!!!! And she's definitely the good looking one in the relationship lolYou're doing it wrong! You have to find a woman that's also a machinist. Think about it.

I'm about to turn 56, and I inherited all of my Dad's tools, and he was a mechanic as a kid and continued to do all of his own auto work and carpentry until he died. On top of all my own tools, I still have to buy more. My wife slowly learned the value of having the right tool for the job, and she doesn't even question it anymore.
edit: Mini rant here. And all his old Craftsman tools are high quality and still going strong while most of the craftsman tools I bought are barely worth using.
