Title: Tire Lugs (good Story)
Post by: egspot on January 08, 2007, 09:57:39 PM

So I was bored and avoiding TV.

Went down to the Bug and preceded to repair a broken tire lug ( it happen when I went to a tire place at 4:30 p.m. and some rookie snapped it with the air wrench and they said \"it happens\" I was so @%#$^ I didn't even ask for it to be fixed.)

So I pick up my drill with all the needed tools (easy out, etc.) I started  to drill the broken lug and 1/8\" in it fell inside the drum (what a circus, SHXX happens :D ) I figure, I got nothing to loose. I got my trusty screwdriver with a flexible magnet and preceded to push the magnet true the adjusting hole. I got lucky and the piece came out.

And to think that I was trying to manage my time and I figure 1 1/2 hrs,  15 minutes tops, LIFE IS GOOD.
