    Unhappy Important News for Skunkworks Bucket builders.

    Missing spanners now threatens permanent closure of the Skunkworks Norf Welly Massif Bucket Factory.

    Reportedly since the spanners went missing there has been a serious restriction on the number of hours the Skunkworks Norf Welly Massif Bucket Factory has been open for. Inside sources say that the factory had been stripped down in search of the missing tools but to no avail.

    Another inside source said that The Skunk was pleading for the safe return of all three spanners, esp the Powerbuilt rachet one as it was a special birthday pressie for him (and never leaves the garage).

    Un-named source said that the factory owners where still in negotiation over the factory closure however other sources has been recorded in saying "it won't be opened till the spanners are found or replaced".

    Fuck I hate the walking tools. Only ever seems to happen when others are around, but nobody knows where they went. Usually not intentional, and quite often show up months later, but still frustrating as hell.

    Happens worse than ever at the track, on that note, if I used someones tyre irons, and they now cant find them, I seem to have accuired a pair. Curiously, when I noticed I had them, I asked the guy I did borrow some from and he still has his. A mystery for sure

    Come on everyone, if you've visited the Bucket Factory in the last month or two, please check your tool boxes, cars, utes, vans, bags, mouths and bums to see if you have a couple of spanners that aren't like the others.
    Skunk is good enough to let us hang out and use his space and his stuff, the least we can do is to make sure his special tools don't go missing and if they do, have a look for them! PLEASE!!! Cheers

    Nope. It's really the racket 10mm I'm missing the most. Oh and the 12 and 14mm.

    Not that they're sizes I'd use often eh?

    Looks likes I'll be buying some new ones.

    I'm not looking for charity... I was just hoping someone had them.

    For all I know I could have lost them. Save your money for getting to the BoBTT.

    Thumbs up Today I was Spannered

    At the end of the day, while packing up after a day spent working with the Kendogs on the buckets, I opened the drawer to my tool chest and lo, there is no gap in the spanners.

    A quick txt to the Kendogs. They say they are sure they don't know anything about the spanner appearing.

    All I can say is thank you, you shouldn't have, and I know you weren't around when the spanners disappeared.

    A very nice gesture. Thank you.
