Yesterday I could not find my vernier caliper. Without that, I cant do anything. Its kept in the tool chest drawer with the drills so that i can find it whenever I want it.
I searched every single drawer in my workshop three times. i was heartbroken, not only for sentimental reasons, but shear flabbergasted that I could not find it in a 3m x 5 m workshop that nobody else goes into.
5 minutes later, I walked back to start searching again, and saw it. resting on top of the thicknesser, which rests on top of the drawer its normally kept in. :shock: :shock: :shock:
While looking in the drawer that was 2ft below my eyeline, it had been right in front of me, at 1 foot below my eyeline. :roll: :roll: :roll: I had literally looked PAST it to check the drawer!
Then today I spent 3 hours trying to make this adaptor, (3 hours wasted) when suddenly I knew what to do and have made two of them in 45 minutes.
I'm hoping thats my 24 hours of senior moments for the year. 8) 8)
