    I remember doing that to anchor a barrier net across part of Kasnyku Bay (Chatham Strait, SE Alaska), using a gas powered rock drill, inserting the 2-part epoxy tube into the granite, then pounding the anchor bolt into the hole and epoxy bag/cartridge. Hardest part of that job can be finding someone else to handle the drill...

    Or keep him busy opening child-proof (180 proof?) containers, tight vacuum sealed containers, and more... Coffee runs could result in destruction of a company truck...

    Or at a public school... Last week I loaded up six bundles (still plastic strapped) of Scholastic (K-5 school) newspapers that overloaded a school garbage can, instead of tossing them in the compactor, took them to my solid waste transfer site recycle containers.
    The Nickel's Worth or other free weekly ad paper racks. Lately, I've noticed more companies using the brown craft paper as cushioning in the shipping boxes. (Just crumpled, not torn, and easy to fold up and save for projects...

    Oh, man! This could turn into :threadjacked: like the forever "Oil Question"...
    Pinyon, ponderosa, lodgepole, Douglas fir, red fir, or...?

    Just call it "HiYo" and when anybody asks, "It's Silver, and I'm away!"

    Had the pleasure/honor of meeting @kidsmoke yesterday up here in Maine. Had a fantastic dinner with him, @Tacoma Mike (and his better half). So nice to put a voice/face to a username. We appreciate you taking the time out of your hectic trip to spend a little time with us.

    A few things I'm planning on purchasing for the Tundra. Let the mods begin...LOL.

    Bed Mat
    AVS in-Channel Window Vents
    Husky X-Act Contour Floor Liners
    Rolling Hard Tonneau Cover for secure tool storage. I'm leaning toward the BAK Revolver X4S. The truck cap/accessory shop where I've purchased my prior Caps and Tonneau cover recommended that and their service is outstanding.

    Too bad you didn't get a "Texas Edition" truck that is common down there. That would confuse the "F" out of you yanks up there :rofl:

    @kidsmoke
    Great to meet you sir.
    You’re good people. Best of luck to your family.
    Have a safe trip home.

    I don’t like channel visors.
    Sometimes they activate the anti pinch roll down. FYI..
    So far the accessories list is approved.
