yes but have failed on occasion.

You can also choose "Powerful, determined, charming" or "Heroic, wild, exciting"
I fart in the general direction of anyone brandishing those handbags!

All my cars have battery disconnect switches. Good insurance for tinkerers!

WE had a company hilux 4wd display car for mines and parked it in a shopping centre to get lunch.
Came back and it wouldn't start
Nobody noticed that there was a battery kill switch on the front bull bar.
Obviously some passing smart arse had switched it off.

All 5, plus a machete.
Not sure about the double sided viking axe though?

Why wouldn't you just disconnect the negative terminal first?

Of course you do negative terminal first. The idea if for what ever reason, you drop the wrench and it touches the positive terminal.

Why do you think everyone is stupid and doesn't know anything ?
An isolated spanner/screwdriver is a really good idea when working on batteries or any DC power system.

4, not the axe, but yes the machete!
But I remove the machete when not travelling, because here in Belgium it is a forbidden weapon

As with hammocks, I think the best machetes come from Brasil. Sadly, Ive long since lost the pair I was presented with from there.

When you have Viking heritage , it is de rigeur...
Though a bit of a prop I suspect.

Go on the @DCPU i'll bite ... why were you presented (a long time ago) with a pair of Brazilian Machetes ?
Did you get lost a lot or were people back then wishing you'd go for a long walk in the jungle ?

Gerber machete and silky saw. The best

I'm really expert at ruining those pruning saws. One bad stroke and it's good for the bin.
I've stopped buying them!

I think you two should get a room……..


I’d leave the machetes behind though.

Silky are the dogs, it's got me out of all sorts of bother.
I carry a Gomboy curve in the car and when out and about.

One bad stroke and you’ll do serious damage to yourself. I’ve had a few stitches in my time.
