so yesterday, I see somebody giving away a mill/lathe combo on CL. One motor busted but no big deal for me. Ad said to come and get it. But I still took the time to send an email saying I'm interested. Went supersonic on the freeway. Nobody outside.
Long story short, I did not want to start rummaging on the guy's property unannounced, so went to the house, introduced myself and asked politely if I could get it. He says yes and will show me. He takes his sweet time, though. We walk together to the shed and when we get there a bunch of unknown guys are just loading the mill on a trailer.... Fark....
So, is getting free tools like dating? Nice guys always finish last?
