    ND Mike I’ve had my MacMaster VP 215 for years. Besides packing for sale, I can’t begin to calculate how much savings I had over the years. It really paid for itself just in food loss alone.

    The one you located has an oil pump, which I particularly like. Should last you well past your life span. (Have a couple of kids eyeing up mine) LOL

    Chef asked my kids why don’t they invest in their own tools when they come over to work on their cars. Their response, they don’t need to I have everything they need to borrow and they will get it after I am gone. LOL

      YooperDog I feel your pain. There are times that I think I am their personal grocery store. I took care of the tools before they left. Each one got a basic tool box as a get out of the house gift. LOL

        YooperDog I was blamed for missing tools from my dad. He would say “I’m sure you borrowed that”. After he passed away, I was cleaning out his stuff getting ready for an auction and found most of the stuff he was sure I borrowed. Tools that fell behind his benches, got stuck in the back of drawers, you get the idea. He had so much stuff, the auction was 9 1/2 hours non stop. I guess that’s was happens when you live in the same house 50 years

        hey vegetarians, my food poops on your food!

          kyle Reminds me of a story when I was young. Dad had a garden and wasn’t getting very many peas one summer, kept blaming me and my brothers for picking and eating the peas raw, he was getting pretty mad. We looked at each other wondering which one was doin it. One day I was washing dishes and the window looks out over the back yard. Our dog was out in the garden pulling peas off the vines without damaging the plant. Called my dad and showed him, he started laughing, apparently because it was the dog it was okay.

            YooperDog My kid was always using my tools when he was growing up, never put them away, left them out. Then when he became a mechanic and got his own tools, I went over and used his tools, left them out and borrowed all my marked tools back. He also has a bad habit of using my specialty tools and breaking them without replacing them. I fixed that problem too, I bought new ones and give him the broken ones. He finally got the clue.

                bocephus I had a cocker spaniel that did the same. I thought it was the wildlife, but nothing was damaged. There she was carefully picking the ripest nipping them off.

                    johnsbrewhouse A always admired when mine would gently wrap his mouth and lips around them and gently twist his head until it was released. Then, would just find a shady place and nibble to his hearts content. So precious.
