    My buddy who runs the powdercoat place ask to borrow my pancake air compressor a while back. He had one of his workers bring it back.

    This is how he picked it up and how I keep it in the shop at home.

    This is how he returned it.....

    Wow. My dad taught me better than that when I was 10 years old, the first summer I worked for him lol.

    Edit: to be fair those hoses are a bitch, gotta walk them all the way out straight to roll or unroll them.

    They can be tricky to wind back up for sure.

    My dad taught me to return stuff nicer than you got it too :D

    I like how in the 3rd photo where you made that cut away you can see how completely you filled the spaces you were welding. When I was first learning glass blowing my boss used to get me to cut parts I made in half so we could see the wall thickness so I could work on getting it as consistent as possible.

    Finally got these little brackets from the fab shop. They burnt them out with the laser and bent them. This is what’s been holding this job up from getting out of our shop. It's 18' long and 80" wide.

    My boss and I have been looking for the side cutters for a while. I told him the other guy in the shop probably lost em. I just found them while looking at something on my truck. There they were in the fender. I cleaned them up, let’s see how long it takes him to notice they’re back.
