    I think when that post was made I had changed my meds. Some really good ones there.

    No. 35: You check the forum before checking winning lottery numbers.

    No. 36: When thinking about winning the lottery, wife envisions a new house, and new car, you think BIG shop, lotsa tools.

    No. 37: You have another baby just so you can build a crib.

    No. 38: Marital counseling to you means finding out how you and your wife can build stuff together.

      Well guess that it!. Hit 34 out of 38. Number 39: Can't get in the shop for a couple of days and you get withdrawl symptons! Number 40: Even if you are not into any projects you go out to shop and just look around and maybe pet a couple of tools!

        How about this one....41. You know that your addicted when you spend 3 hours in the ER getting a finger stitched (6 of them) and as soon as you get home you sit down in front of the computer and post your accident so that no one else on the BT3 forum will do the same thing.


        If you have read Blackwallnuts threads on OWCH and the other one with pictures you will understand.

          42: You overhear your kids bragging that their dad could build that out of wood any day of the week.

          43: Your kid tells his/her shop teacher to stop by your house if he/she wants to see a real shop.

          44:You hear power tools running in the neighborhood and you go for a walk to see what's going on.

            45: Your know on your street as the "Tool Guy" and any time your garage/shop doors are open the slightest bit, the neighbours stop by and peek in to see what project your working on now.

            46: Your known to have every screw type and length "in stock" by your family
