Stop looking in your shed ... it might be in your house !
Next problem ... you can't remember where you put your house.

I now know where to look for my tape measures, spanners, pencils etc.
On top of a shelf where I last climbed up the stepladder. I am currently installing my ducting and always looking for my favourite tape measure (Festool). I just have to reposition the step ladder to my last place of ascent (or 2nd last or...)

OK, everyone that was worried about the lost tape can breath easy now, I found it tonight and now I have two! I was looking for something I had dropped when putting my hollow chisel mortiser together and I started to drag things out from under the bench and lo and behold there was the tape behind all the plastic drill cases stacked under the bench. I found the part from the mortiser as well so the tape was a bonus.

I'll call Interpol to let them know. They can release all the suspects they were holding, both here and abroad, without charge......

Chris to fix the problem an easy solution just bring the chisel morticer to my shed and you can't lose your tape.
Easy peasy.

But we won't be able to get it from the drive to the shed so I will have to hang onto it. Originally Posted by royflatmate
