    Here's one for you.
    I have purchased a lot of tools in my time. I always tell her, you have to spend money to make money. Hit her with the "when I'm on my death bed, I'll want more time, not more money". I recently bought the $2000 odd Hilti laser. I was really trying to hide the receipt, but she saw it. She was going in at me, "YOU SPENT $2000 ON A LASER?!?"
    I told her.. time is more valuable than money. That laser saves me an incredible amount of time, which means I can get home earlier to spend time with you and make you dinners etc.
    I slept on the couch for a week.

    Story time:
    In the car with the misses, hand on ten and two, safety is paramount. Telling a riveting tale about a 'cool new tool' that would make my life at work so much easier, but unfortunately I could neither afford nor could I justify the purchase. Accountant calls; I must answer via handsfree. Safety is paramount. "blah blah blah, your business must spend X amount of dollars by X date otherwise you'd basically be giving the Australian tax office free money'. Missus turns to me with a sincere smile exclaiming that I deserve the cool new tool.
    Little does she know my accountant is my friend from highschool, I messaged him prior to jumping in the car with a complete game plan and I'm basically a modern day Mcgyver.

    So whenever I need to (want to) get a new tool (as we're renovating our currently renovating our house) I ask my wife to check if her brother has what I need. I can then "go around his place to borrow it" and return with said tool, (def get rid of the packaging on the way home). It's been 18 months and I still have "her brothers" 18v Makita impact driver hammer drill and framing nail gun set in my garage!

    Not blowing smoke, but for me the easiest way to get new tools has been watching the videos featuring Gaston with my partner. There's always something that he'll show off that she thinks is super cool (or super cute, in the case of the mini systainer). Once there's something she wants to get it would be silly not to also grab the other things I've "needed for a while"; saves on shipping, doesn't it?

    How I hide my tool purchases, that's a very regular occurrence at our place. Mainly me (the wife) trying to sneak in new purchases.
    I am usually always super nice to hubby, make him a cup of coffee, have the dishes done before he gets home and ask him what else he would like to buy for his windsurfers. By than I usually get the question "which new tool did you buy?" Well... than it's easy to confess, since he asked so nicely. 😀

    Scott brown showing everyone he's a homeowner now by eating smahed avo on toast!
    Now for tool hiding, i've got many schemes, but a recent one was to levy a bunnings and mitre10 price match on some big purchases and use the deficit money to buy myself a makita router! We're building a deck and had encountered an old concrete set of steps that needed lots of additional bracketry so it was a hefty purchase and i'd worked out there would be enough of a deficit if I stuck my neck out and price matched to leave a gap in the invoice to get the router. The router was price matched too getting it down in price!

    My tool hiding story - I bought the DeWalt DCL050 and hid it from my partner for working on the car. I knew she wouldn't approve of spending that much on a light, so hid it for months until we had a power cut. When we eventually did have one, it was so useful at illuminating entire rooms that she simply couldn't be mad at me - I even got a little smile from her when I said "if I hadn't snuck this purchase, then you would have been forced to light candles all around the house". Didn't have to hide it anymore after that evening!

    The Systainer TLoc system is such a game changer. I started off many years ago with the sys1 and was reasonable happy.
    Then I bought TLoc and thought, "Oh nice, it locks onto the Sys1.
    Own two TLoc's and you start to understand them. Three or four and you are speeding up your work flow and definitely the packing up of you tools every evening.
    Start adding the roll carts and your work life suddenly becomes easier.
    They aren't cheap as we know but just buy one every six months and before you know it, life is just better.
    Customers are always impressed too, they make you look more professional.

Includes pictures to give you ideas for layouts and such. If you are looking for a guide, this is not exactly what you want. But if you are trying to familiarize yourself with the way that pole barn building and other out buildings, are made, then this will work just as you need it to. A few things in this book are a barn (of course), detached garage, storage building, and coops.

    Hey Scott, Joel the apprentice here in Dunedin. We are currently renovating our house whilst living in it with two young children. If I need( want want want) a new tool I just drag the chain on the house renos for a bit and use the sales pitch of if I get one of .......... (Insert new tool) it will help me get things done a lot faster....

    I always tell my wife that I needed the tool to be able to do that job she asked me to do and, as luck would have it, that really expensive tool was on an amazing special that I just couldn't pass up.

    My partner wanted to restore 2 old bedside tables so I thought it was the perfect opportunity to buy an orbital sander and 2 18V batteries and say it was a gift for her to do her project. She’s used it once and I use it nearly every week for my work 🤙🏽

    All my new tools are on loan to "try out" from suppliers, she was watched a few SBC episodes, so now i answer the question "is that a new tool" with "yes" and do the pointing thing to invisible Ad Gifted in front of my face haha

    My method is to either pretend "it's the same one I had before" or tell her I need it to complete whatever renovation she wants to do next, to the point that now when she wants something done it's followed up by "you can get a new tool to help!" because we all know every job needs a new tool ;)

    My mate and I, when we buy new tools/toys we just tell our wives we’re borrowing from each other. Unfortunately I think our wives do the same 🤣🤣

    I’ve recently purchased a whole range of Makita 18v tools previously I was only telling ryobi. My girlfriend and I are saving to buy a camper van and I spent almost $2000 on tools. She walked in the my shed one time and said I didn’t know you had blue tools I thought you only had green. I ended up making her believe a story on the new lights in the shed make the colours look different and some how got away with it. Dw I eventually told her the true and we had a laugh. Love the videos

  • @CFmonkey93

    @taqman666 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Glad you have found Nelson Scott instead of the rat race and I hope you will both be happy there. I've bought some great stuff from Gaston and he has the best customer service of any business I have dealt with. The quality of his tools are without question. The last time I bought some 'needed' tools for myself, I also bought a nice gift for my wife so we both got presents and she was happy with the arrangement. Not sure if I can keep this up though when my 'needs' are so high especially when all this new stuff keeps appearing. Yes Gaston - I was astounded when I saw your T-shirt with the Samurai using a western saw!!

    Knipex nips! Was concreting full time about 7yrs ago and the crew went through nips constantly: blades blunt and chipping ect. Boss picked up a pair of knipex on the way through a random town hardware store, drove back that arvo to buy every pair they had on the shelf. Still using the same pair, Rate %100

    Prize giveaway story:
    This is actually how my wife hid a new tool from me which was a present!! It was added to my festool stacks in the workshop for 3 weeks before the special day and then brought out at the right time. I was delighted with my new sander but embarrassed that it was in plain sight the whole time!

    For those of you in New Zealand who maybe haven't used Knipex pliers. Like Gaston said in the video they are without a doubt the best pliers I have ever owned and used. Scott love the channel I watch every video.
