Title: Things I never used to have but wouldnt do without now
Post by: cleanability on April 15, 2009, 12:50:51 am: Well it seems so obvious now but 2 buckets for filling up my porty. One filling up in the sink the other being emptied in machine. Cant believe i used to have just the one bucket when I started.
And this item I never used to have with me but its saved my bacon quite a few times sine I got it. And its FUSE WIRE !!!
And finally a filler hose for those jobs where you cant get a bucket under the taps.

Post by: fenman on April 15, 2009, 03:01:53 pm: Never ever have any food, healthy or otherwise in your van that you know you should not eat.
It calls to you, " eat me, eat me, EAT ME"
In the end you will always do as you are told and eat it. :D
You convince yourself that you will work it off on the next job. ;D

Post by: Shaun_Ashmore on April 15, 2009, 04:20:52 pm: Same here Charlie, I get indigestion if I'm working after just eating, may have an apple or orange in the van when the summer months come to rehydrate me, customers offer me chocky bickies so I use them to give me a sugar boost.

Could not do without my 5 ltr pres sprayer,constantly flling up the 1ltr one,and allways made it too strong.

My new stair tool,used to use upholstery tool for stairs,took far too long.
The plastic crates full of chems in the back,prochem don`t use the little disks in the top of their containers,which were constantly tipping over and emptying contents.
