A wild package was found .... in the Forster where the former partner had shoved anything I had left there. There are tings in the packet! And a note that explains everything! Thanks DJ, that wiring test rig esp is going to come in goddamn handy testing the heap of poo poo I'm rebuilding...... let alone that yes, the WRC car HAS had that happen before and a test kit would have bloody handy........ (I had no idea the cruise control on a XT was controlled by a key?????? That is truly odd and also drat cool)

I haven't officially thanks my Santee now that they've revealed themselves. Thank you Wrar! You have gone above and beyond and have made my first AI Secret Santa a resounding success! A giant thank you to iForge for running it. Edit: Phone posting means I can never spell correctly

Everything make it? The note details the contents far more accurately than the customs declaration. The note also is a unique look into untreated mental illness.

PAGING BCM, YOU HAVE A PACKAGE AT RECEPTION FROM THE FROZEN WASTES IT CAME YES its a good thing you removed the cigars and the "Kinder Surprises" (which I assumed was an aphorism and had to Google) shaking the box resulted in lots of clinking. I hope nothings broken! tension builds ... we have a letter! let's see : three pages, Canadian AF QUITE the haul! TREATS! i've eaten one packet while unboxing and arranging everything, saving the rest for later. Giant M&Ms ! this stuff is perfect for field repairs! not available in *any* local store. also : they aren't touching each other, so no violence. Yet. the nephews aren't getting these, nope! ya know, there's just enough room on the pocket bike frame for a 1S lipo, a tiny brushed motor and a receiver... tools and a streamlight ! v nice. especially the streamlight - my old one fell someplace inaccessible and I've been meaning to get a replacement. How did you know? can those serial num,bers be traced back to you? Because Mischief. POS Durango was debaged back when I had it repainted. I still have the original badges, just never bothered putting them back on. Mazdafying it is going to happen those bearings are perfectly fine! That pad has plenty of life in it, just flip it around!

No, they cannot. Someone tossed about 40 of them in the scrap steel bin at work and I have no idea where they came from other than they were unused. I have about a dozen left because some of the maitenance personnel found my stash and helped themselves. As for the streamlight, the letter doesn't lie, maybe Amazon knew. Glad it all got to you intact. Belated Merry Christmas!

Good news! It's here! Though the box is a bit worse for wear. Opening it up in what is certainly not the prescribed manner, I like where this is going... Classic FoMoCo shop manuals and a Honda hat! I think someone is trying to hint at a future project. Definitely going to have that hat for when I finally get around to buying a CBR to go climbing hills around where I live. (Yes, I know that's the Honda Cars logo.) Thanks Mr. Wiggles! Some cool swag that will find a good home here in Formosa.

Didn't have time to participate this year due to life getting in the way, but thanks nonetheless, it's been entertaining, even from the sidelines.

I just realized I never uploaded the photos of my package from Boaz MacPhereson. Sorry for being a lovely Santee and dropping the ball for close to a month... To begin with was a really great letter! Followed by a really cool 'Ring shirt that sent my sperging boss further sperging since she speaks German and doesn't understand why I'd have seemingly random German words on a t-shirt. Random mags and a cutout of the bane of my childhood existence, an "inboard runabout" or as I call it a motherfucking Chriscraft timesuck. But my kids love it, so it's cool. Some key/carlot tags, marker lights, couple packets of lube, some microfiber cloths, and a speed wrench! I was just about to go get one of those for a Christmas vacation project and then I got one in the box. Thanks for reading my mind! And finally, the pièce de résistance, a piston and connecting rod proving that you can throw any poo poo in a box and USPS will still send it. I'm still trying to figure out what I'm going to use it for, but I think a future welding project needs to happen, probably involving ripping off a certain trophy in a movie. Thanks again for the haul Boaz, you've been an amazing santa both times thus far! Also, thank you again for throwing this whole thing together for us iforge! edit: Cage posted:And finally, making good use of the flat postage we have a part: It's an oil filter housing assembly for a 2002 Mini Cooper S rushed from England to my doorstep in 2 days because it was still 1/8th the price of a part from the Mini dealership and 12 days faster! It's missing a lovely plastic clip with spring aka the "drain back plunger" because you can't just buy that lovely part by itself, you have to shell out for the whole loving thing. Who would've known that plastic in an area that repeatedly gets hot/cold would make it brittle? In any case, glad you liked your stuff! keykey fucked around with this message at 19:02 on Jan 10, 2018 |

Hooray! Glad you liked all the stuff, man. The piston's out of an LQ4 and the marker lights are the originals off the Nova. Happy the shirt will work out.
