Cool Stuff For Men

[Sakura]

@Luzifer that orange mug looks tiny and fragile you might crush it with your strongman hands that could be a $100 mistake. And @Sakura is that LV fragrance at least unisex? I didn't realize they even made perfumes haha.

All this talk about Lambo swag is making me want to spend some money...hmm let's see what I can find

The fragrance is for male but it smells so good it attracts more males than females

Aye, this talk is making me want to spend some money too. Not on Lambo stuff though. I found a massive Snap-on plier and I'm thinking of slapping it on the side of my cabinet with magnets like a museum exhibit. Only problem is it'smade in China, so it might retire before I do.

That plier is going to feel lonely it will want brothers and sisters. I foresee many tools in your future.

Got a new bracelet in the mail today… Have tried to get it for years but it has been sold out everywhere or in really bad shape and with crazy shipping costs…

But now I have one. Just need to get it shortened a bit since I do not have arms like Luz…

Very nice are you going to remove some links by yourself? Looks like watch links. Check for an arrow inside the bracelet, use a punch and hammer the pin out, remove the links, then push the pin back in and then punch the pin back.

Me I have to be careful when I buy watches, sometimes sellers do not send the extra links that are supposed to come with it or they took some out from the watch itself. I bought a spare watch, I didn't think to check it was missing a link. Thankfully I had a spare from the other one.

The thrill of searching an item at a reasonable price is a rewarding feeling. I do that all the time, I rarely pay full price, I search for deals and sales and especially on ebay sometimes you have to wait for several people to pay full price then you get a shot a couple months later and you have no competition. Tools for the business, watches, vehicles etc.

Tried to do that yesterday, but did not succeed. Do not have the proper tools for it... Will go to a shop today to get it done I guess

Not shirts, collectibles, or memorabilia. More like “etc,” with a touch of collectibles.

So I went and bought a sapphire file and a very good stainless steel scissor with the smallest, sharpest tip. Probably German-made. Any guess what I am going to use them for?



I use the tools to shape cork for my violin. The chin rest originally had a 3 mm cork sheet at the base, but I needed to raise it to about 6 to 7 mm. So I bought 3 mm cork sheets, stacked them together, and then cut and beveled the edges. It works fine, but next time I will use a wine cork so I can make a single thick pad.

A jeweler doing it for you is inexpensive and costs the same as a punch kit. The watch kit like I have cost me very little, I've used it many times, it's so handy to remove watch links and to open the back cover to replace a battery. It came with a bunch of band pins.

I moved some posts to create another cool thread, anything goes type of thread, keeping the other collectibles to Lambo related things.

Have fun!

If you change or adjust the strap often, may as well get a set. I have a similar set, but the end pins break off easily. Apparently they are not made correctly using harder metal. Chinese crap. Shopping for Japanese or German tools now.

If you find a better set let us know. I've used my kit several times, no problems yet, the punches are so thin for punching the pins they could bend so yeah it would be a good idea to find a better kit. Then again my kit is inexpensive and I've pushed out at least 20-30 pins, it's in good shape.

I think I found a Japanese made one under ANEX brand in Amazon. Set of 3 drift pins, a mini hammer, and vise unit with rubber pad for around $25-$30. Pretty cheap!

We don't have men's scented soap in the country, women however have entire isles and boutiques dedicated to them. Until last year I had never seen or known it existed, I was stuck using unscented soap. We have stores called Winners and Marshalls who buy surplus stuff, since last year they decided to have a mini section for men. I got lucky, I had a few bars left and found a few more this week, I drove to most stores in both cities to find these soaps from Portugal or Italy. I found 2 bars of my favorite ones stashed in the women's soap! Jackpot!

Haha that's funny.

They are not strong or heavy perfumed, just a perfect balance, taking a shower with these feels like luxury. You'd think tobacco and or leather would smell strong but no they are pleasant and mild. You don't even need shampoo with these.
