Club Tool Rental Program

[Trollhole]

My thoughts.

We all have need from time to time for use of a special tool that might get used once in a blue moon. But is nessessary to do the job right. If UC bought the tools and charged a small fee for rental would ya'll be interesed in something like this?

Yeppers

 

[steenh]

Great idea.

Now, would someone who knows how to use it come along with the rental?

tube bender???

 

[clemson55]

Depends what the tool is but yes probably.

 

[ClemsonCruiser]

SO you have a SST knuckle centering tool, a clamshell puller, C-clip pliers, Vaccum guage, Dwell meter, Code scanner and a timing light. These were the things I was talking about.

 

[ClemsonCruiser]

blah blah blah was all I could understand there....... TUBE BENDER??? oh and I don't eat clams anyways

 

[swampyCU]

JP doesnt need any fancy tool with those long names.... he just improvises

 

[clemson55]

A little redneck engineering and you can do anything regardless of the tools you have.

 

[Rockclimber]

YES!

You can also break things on the trail with redneck engineering and have all the members of the club stop what they are doing and extract a vehicle out of the trail the rest of the day.

I don't know about you guys, but I would be uncomfortable renting out my "special tool" . . . .

 

[GXO]

I wouldn't, I need the money....just not to you guys!

Actually, I do have an OBDII code reader, C-clip pliers, a fed to splice synthetic rope in the field, and several other interesting toys in the back of the Avocado...oh yeah, I also have air tools for the field too

I know marshall I was just picking on you

 

[clemson55]

Redneck engineering had nothing to do with the distributor going on that was done by the PO.

 

[Trollhole]

I know I was picking back.

 

[ClemsonCruiser]

I know..........

 

[Turkeypen]

Seriously though,

Getting back to Marshall's brain storm, it sounds like we have a bunch of tools already within the Club and may not need to buy much of anything.

Perhaps a "directory" could be established of who has what tool and is willing to loan it out, perhaps with a slight donation to the club.

Now, who has a lift?

 

[ClemsonCruiser]

I think you are right david, we ougth to see what tools Alan..... I mean the club has and then go from there
