Grumble grumble grumble
Permalink Closed


So I was working on the 'bench last week, using the trusty heat gun to free up a pesky section that didn't want to play nice. When right in the middle of the operation, my heat gun dies. Dead, burnt toast, stick a fork in it's it's done dead. Make a few calls & the only people in town that have the size I need is a crafty shop called Hobby Lobby. $20? On sale? Sold baby I'm on the way!

I get there and the ONLY color heat gun they have in stock is FREAKIN' HOT PINK!

Groan....

Ok....Lemmie' have it....sigh...Grumbling under my breath..(freakin'hotpinkheatgunlookslikeadamnedgirlstool.theonlypinkthinginmyshopshouldbemyass...)grumble grumble...where's my spraypaint?

Whining session over. I now return you to your regularly scheduled program.

Just tell them it takes a touch macho guy to operate a pink heat gun. Then you can offer them a sample of its power where the blisters won't show.....

Anybody thats got the kahunas big enough to keep a cow pie pen holder on his desk definitely has no problem using a pink heat gun.  Dare you to take it to the next pen show though!  smile
