Was It Worth it ?

Post by Tod Gilding » Wed Apr 06, 2011 3:00 pm

I wonder if this guy thought " $230.00 for a well figured back and side set, Nah I'll mill my own"

I dont know what the guy is looking so happy about.......the surgical procedure required to remove logs from your r***um is quite complicated and expensive. Hes obviously got private health insurance.

Serves him right for buying a shitty American pick up. If that had been a Hilux, he could have driven the log to the sawmill.

From the look of the vegetation, that happened up my way.
I'm pretty sure that he won't be smiling when his insurance agent tells him that his policy don't cover self-inflected stupid.

Yes, this guy who is smiling is a luthier and he got the car under the condition that he would remove the wood and the debris (= car). The car will serve him as feedstock for for some jigs he was dreaming of since he was fifteen, and the gasoline left will heat his shed for half of the next winter.

There is only one thing I don't understand: why he wants more wood if he can get it for nothing every time he occupies the toilet???? Ahhh, certainly he only agreed because of the free gasoline that comes with the wreck.

Whichever piece of wood you are talking about, Seb, I think you are going to have to invent some new positions if you want to use it!

Ha! what an idiot, I would have put it in the back of the ute not on the bloody roof racks.
