Well, it was bound to happen. I stopped at the local GM dealer today, asked about WWs. I’ve known the service manager for years, he said “heck yes, take all ya’ want”. They had a 5-gal bucket over flowing and a small box half full. He helped me load the bucket and I picked up all the WWs on the floor, threw them in the box and loaded that up. He told me he’d call me when a bucket was full again.:-D
When I got home I started to pull some out of the bucket so I could lift it. Something caught my eye, funny lookin’ WW with ZN stamped on it. Yep, a zinc WW, several of ‘em, and steel and plastic weights too.
And trash, :holysheep trash. And about thirty pounds of stick on weights. By the time I sorted out the zinc, steel, plastic, trash and stick on weights I ended up with only 2/3 bucket. Darn demoralizing.:(
Still, they’re free :mrgreen:, I can’t complain too awful much. But finding those zinc weights did freak me out some :-x. I sure would hate to miss one and get it in with the melt.
