other dog Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 I was looking for my lug wrench in the shed this morning. I was digging and looking with a flashlight...knew it was in there somewhere, but I couldn't find it. After hauling out half the crap in there and putting it in the yard, I decided I should just clean the whole thing out. It was packed so full you couldn't get in it without climbing over stuff. Wasn't long before I wished i'd never started the project, but it had to be done. Now of course i'm glad I got it done- lots of room now!Should have taken a "before" picture though.Found this in the bottom of a box. We had a driver at H.H.Moore's that was bitten in the heel by a brown recluse spider. His CB handle was Macho Man.This was probably 15 years ago or so. By the time they figured out what it was, he ended up losing his leg just below his knee. He couldn't work, so I made 2 kettles of stew and sold it in Appomattox and at our company safety meeting. This is one of the flyers I wrote that my son Morgan printed for me, even has pictures of the stew pot on it.Found a helmet too.Got a trash bag full of these Darrell Waltrip Tide boxes. I started to put all of them in the burn barrel but changed my mind- maybe they're worth something to somebody. Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

NoClueJoe66 Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 I would check it out on the internet and see if they might be worth some money or something Quote This message was brought to you by Hargraves Potted Meat Product.

I had to climb over stuff to get to that tool box back there, and you couldn't see the floor anywhere.I'd like to find a 20' container to store stuff in, preferably a green one so nobody would notice it.

I dug a bunch of containers out of our attic last night and learned that my Daughters have a herd of about 500+ stuffed animals. I guess I won't be having an " Awesome! I was wondering what happened to that!" moment. Quote Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RowdyRebel Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 When I bought my house, I thought the 27' x 34' garage would be big enough. I can barely fit my motorcycle in there now. When I bought my new air compressor, I moved some stuff from the garage over to the house next door (that I WAS planning on tearing down) to make room....now that house is "storage" and is filling up.I don't know what's worse...to have all the storage space you could ever want and never need to get rid of anything........or to not have ANY room to store stuff so that you'd be FORCED to only keep what you use on a regular basis.When I didn't have room to keep anything, I always would get pissed because I was re-buying something that I had once had & got rid of because I didn't have anywhere to keep it......and now that I've got room to store stuff, I STILL end up rebuying stuff when I need it because I can't remember what I did with it since the last time I used it...I hate stuff. 1 Quote When approaching a 4-way stop, the vehicle with the biggest tires has the right of way!

farmer52 Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 You guys are preaching to the choir! I have duplicates and triplicates of tools, parts, etc. and can't find most of the stuff! But remember one thing - as long as the wife's vehicle fits inside the garage, no problem!

Vladislav Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 One day I came to the solution of If I have something but haven't a mind of where it locates that is the same as I have it not.Since it I'm fighting strongly shed content.

Vladislav Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Too strange, nobody downloaded the diagramm still.Most of us need to print it and fix on a wall in a garage/shop/shed.
