Tools - gotta love 'em!
When it comes to gifts, Louise knows just the way to my heart - if not flying time, then tools will do. We're actually pretty well fixed with everything we NEED to build an RV (having done one already), but who says you have to stop there? Yesterday, she gave me TWO Tungsten bucking bars for my birthday! I'll admit, I have been lusting after one ever since I first heard about them - just the name sounds cool....."Tungsten".....it just rolls off the tongue, doesn't it?!
I can hardly wait to get into the shop and pound a few rivets! I might even shoot some that I would have otherwise "squoze" (take that, spell-checker...
)!
Of course, since we're really building HER next airplane, this might not be as selfless a gift as it might first appear....but that's OK - a good marriage can be held together with enough rivets!
