Im sure you have:) Care to share:) Here's a picture, similar to the old truck we had. The gas peddle disappeared finally and we "fixed" it by using vise grips, for next several years!

I wouldn't mind having a bit more material in my life but there's a lot to be said for learning how much you can get by without. :D
 
I've always heard during WWII, they called the german army "Jerry's" and the term was created at that time. Now days the just call you "Macgyver""

We call it jury rigging here. This ranch was full of stuff like that when we moved here.The wife's older brother threw away his tool box when he found his first welder.Unfortunately the welding looked like the chickens roosted on the job.He had an active imagination and lots of time apparentely.His name is Raymond and unfortunately we are still finding some of his patches and repairs on a suprising amount of stuff.Our term of endearment for these lousy repairs is Raymondizing or Raymondized.
