They had the $90 Perco, and the RV store thought I was CRAZY when I called.

I ain't spending 90 bucks to drop my wastewater on the environmentally sensitive Everglades. We live in America, and that kind of joy is my inalienable right.

ok, here ya go IRA

There's this new tape that has been developed and right now the name escapes me, maybe if someone knows it, chime in.....but anyways, it's like $6 for 10 ft but it streaches to 3 times it's size, so about 30 ft. Anyways, it only adheres to itself. But....the kicker is....it settles in on itself.....wrap it around a broken broom handle and that thing won't ever come apart. There's some kind of chemical reaction that makes it mold inside itself and the only way to get it off is to burn it or cut it with heavy duty cutters. Has anyone heard of this?

I thought this product might be a useful tool in the teardropping world. Ill try to find out today the name...just wanted to put the bug in yalls ear! Have a great day!

I don't need no miracle tape yet. I just have to walk into HD sober so I buy the right stupid parts to begin with.

By the way:

Anyone buying the miracle 13-piece hole saw set at HF for $3.99, check the box carefully. The first 5 that I investigated only had between 3 and 12 pieces in it.

Nuclear weapons aren't the only way the Chinese can declare war on us, you know?

RE: See "Red Buttons died" thread.

Wouldn't it be great to see the Three Stooges try to build a Teardrop!

Sorry IRA, had to do it. :rofl:

Ira..i'm not gonna bust your stones too hard, but if you need to stick a ¾ inch water bib through a wall, you need to drill a 7/8's hole so it will go in..actually, a 15/16's hole would work too..even wallowering out the hole with a ¾ hole saw would have make you life better.

Did you try using a "hensweigh" or the "hammerfor"?

I will pay you CASH MONEY for the book you write on building your tear. As long as it has pics, of course.

Ira, Have you looked at the closet rod holders (the rod you put your hangers on) for your broom sticks? You can get them in white plastic or brass. Just the way you like them too.

Cheap. :twisted:
