Pawn Shop Find... and Its Modification
Fought a Mexican Fighting Bull on Last Thursday and Sunday Picked up some Spare Cash cause well I won on Thursday and Took Second on Sunday........ SO I went shopping and hit up a Pawn Shop On a Whim and walked out with My New Craftsman Tool Set... Paid $50 for it at a pawn Shop... Its a 200 piece set retails for like $300... Almost Complete... Missing 20ish sockets... The ONLY Flaw I've Seen in the Design of the Box is the Fact that the Drawers Are Held In By Two Plastic Flapping Closures.... SOOOOOOOOOOO in True Customizationers ( yes I do believe I just made that word up... I know its Prolly not right but, HEY it works) I decided (After My Buddy dropped all of the Tools on the Ground once and then I did it AGAIN at the U-pull it lot) to Figure out how to Fix this design flaw.... Enter the Craftsman 19.2 Volt Cordless Drill, a 12inch long 3/8" Auger Bit and some Scrap 3/8" Iron Rod! 1 hole All the Way From the Bottom of the Storage Area Through All Three Drawers and into the Bottom... Insert Rod That was already Bent, then cut to length, and Rounded on both ends (Safety First People LOL) and Ta-Da!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
All thats Left is To Build up the Flappers that Hold the Storage Bin on the top, that hold the top lid down beefier so that It doesn't EVER just Fall open again fixed lol
