Stuff you find when you clean up

[Cameron Wood]

The base of the out feed table is four huge drawers with plumbing, electrical, cabinet, and misc..

I needed some friction door catches from the cabinet drawer (hinges, pulls, drawer guides, dowels, biscuits, etc.) & ended up cleaning and sorting the whole drawer.

In among the drawer guides I found a 2"x2"x15" stick of ebony that has been missing I think since 1986!

Dad is cleaning and clearing out what is left of his shop (at 85) : ) . Everyone in the family keeps asking him if he has found my finger yet. : (

Hopefully when you do its on ice. Have you checked the freezer.

Left a pair of gloves in a friend's truck, but thought they were in the shop. Found all sorts of missing things while I was looking for those gloves. (Friend returned them when I saw him a few days later.)

My shop is long due for a major clean up. I hope to find my missing 3/32 setup block when I do the clean up....I think it is in one of my scrap piles somewhere.

While I wa# working on the daughter’s end tables, she cleaned a lot of my shop. Now I can’t find anything,..

[Jim Becker]

Finding a nice hunk of ebony isn't a horrible thing at all!

I will say that I 're-discovered' a bunch of stuff when I was moving shop and again when moving things from storage into the new shop. But I'm sure I've already lost things in that space, too. LOL

Why you need labels...

[Justin Rapp]

I need to clean out my shop also. I really need to remove everything from it as if I was moving and install some new storage. I bet I would find some things I don't even remember I have.

I do not think anything recognizable was left. My little brother and sister were more traumatized by the accident than I was. They still play the finger in a box prank on each other.

Problem with putting things in good safe spots is that they are often forgotten(Lost). The continued problem is that one day they pop up again and I say to myself "I missed this I need to put this someplace safe". Hence re-losing it

[Dan Rude]

I keep putting things in a safe spot and never find them until I buy the replacement part or tool.

I resemble that remark....

[Maurice Mcmurry]

Blaming someone else for lost items usually leads to them turning up right where I left them.

I found this a few years back while searching my stack of red oak, looking for the three pieces of sassafras I knew were there.IMG_0091.jpg
