Yvan on Nostr: My old "1. Drink Coffee, 2. Make Stuff" t-shirt from "Gosforth Handyman" Andy Mac is ...
My old "1. Drink Coffee, 2. Make Stuff" t-shirt from "Gosforth Handyman" Andy Mac is full of holes (some idiot wore it whilst angle grinding)... so I ordered a new one.
I noticed he had a revised design for his all-metric double-sided tape measures, so I got them too. Can never have too many tape measures? (I have both lengths in the former design, and all up must be well into the double digits on the things. Yet can still never find one when I want it. 🤪)
AND he's doing a deep-hole marker pencil too. I have wanted one for years, never needed to get one back in the day as I worked with a guy who had several. Never got around to get my own (but I kept my guy stocked with pencil leads of course!) Serendipitous.
I don't watch his content so much any more, but I watched a load of it when doing old British building renovations a few years ago and it was really super helpful content for that. I learnt a lot, maybe it'll even be of use some future day.*
