I could use it box!

[Rp-]

I'm going through the box tonight and getting ready to pack it up. I have a few stainless steel hexagonal rods. They are threaded 8-32 on the ends and I use some to screw brass prep tools into so I can Chuck them in a drill. This is so I don't bugger up the threads on the tools. Anyone think those would be good to add to the box? Anyone think they would use something like that? Tools not included but here's a picture so you can see what I mean.

That is up to you Rp-. I think they would be a good addition to the I could use it! box.

I think it's an interesting Do-hicky. A few in the box could get some usage reviews. Try it we might like them.

Cool. I just wasn't sure how many of you guys might Chuck manual tools into a drill for things like primer reaming, cleaning, uniforming, and all that jazz. I'll get a list together after work.

I don't use case tools in a drill but I often use a short length of cleaning rod to spin brushes and mops.

Kinda messed up a little. I opened the box in front of my wife. She immediately saw the turnequet and wanted to know what I bought. I explained what it was and what the box was. Well, she claimed the wireless radios and the turnequet for her prepping stuff... tried to refill the box as best I could but don't have anything else small enough to fit.


Also, I included a few repack ammo boxes. If you don't know what these are I recommend checking out the repackbox.com website. I've got them for several calibers and like them. Take em if you can use em.

You know the drill. "I can use it" gets it.

Some internal measuring device. Not exactly sure what it's called but used to transfer or verify measurements. It's like a caliper but doesn't have a readout on it. Kinda like a compass. Picture below.

Yes, it an inside diameter caliper, used to measure or transfer ID's. Old school but they still make them, have a couple my self. Never have had to change the batteries on mine

That's what I thought but kept second guessing myself. I know what they're for and have used them before doing wood work on a lathe. Hope someone can use it.

Thank you. I'll get it out Saturday most likely. Will send you tracking info when I have it. Send me a PM with your address please.

Ok cool no hurry. I'll have plenty of time to through it after my surgery. And get more stuff together to add.

Hold the phone!

I'm packing this box back up and realizing I need a new box... I'm also realizing the 20rd plastic ammo box just isn't fitting. I'll try to Jenga it in again when I get another box but it might have to be left out.

BUT!

I forgot I had put 3 small bags of green powder coat in the box as well. They aren't much but at least enough to do a more than a few thousand in each bag. So those will be in there for sure. I'll edit my earlier post and add everything else I've added all in one list to make it easier to copy and paste.

I was wondering if we pick up a new box or not each time. Not an issue to do so.

[PHyrbird]

Only is necessary, I found the box that came with mine sturdy. Now if it arrived banged up, a new one from the USPS is free till shipped....

[1911sw45]

Yes, replace the box as needed. We don’t want any of the contents to escape the travel thru the U.S.P.S. mail system.

Though it would be comical to imagine the powder coat powder getting out and them getting pissed about it... Though I'm sure they would just throw the whole thing away at that point probably.

Or call in the hazmat team to the post office and a swat team to the home of the sender WHAT was the green powder, boy? You've got a lot of explaining to do....

[Rp-]

Aw don't be the fun police. It was all just funny jokes. I'm not really looking to cause problems for anyone. The box went out late due to me forgetting g all about the darn thing. Went to the range Saturday with my new chronograph and just plain forgot all about the box. It should be arriving at Al's place today. Just got another one in the mail last night to stuff more goodies into but ran out of room so I have to go back and think about what people might use the most in that box.

Powder coat survived. The case lube did not. I think maybe the heat from the truck trailer got to it and the tube ruptured. Thank god it was in the ammo can. I'll get everything cleaned up then when my wrist feels better.

[BigAlofPa.]

Delay on cleaning up the items. I have a infection in my wrist. I went to the er last night. They ran an IV antibiotic. And gave a me a prescription for keflex. Hopefully it kicks in soon. My right hand and forearm is pretty puffed up.
