She likes art and painting, so I made her do this...





Kept her out of mischief for a few hours ::)

Would you believe it took 2 mornings for her to do that (and the trial run on the 120pc set) :o

Oh, and fitting the foam dividers/spanner holders, and doing the labels for them.  And an emergency run to the dealers for a poxy o-ring. And hindered fitting an extra leg to my bench to support where the vice has now been attached.

Bless her.

I think Mrs TB is one of those very special women who have a very long fuse coupled with a rather short memory span! Otherwise Mr TB would have been toast a loooong time ago!!!
Either that or as the Irish say....she loves the bones of him ;) ;D

TB'll be in trouble if one drop of oil ever contaminates it, though. ;D
