I am building the great and powerful PPH a veggie garden and needed some bolts and washers so off I trundled to the hardware store. Funnily enough one of the washers I pulled out of the container had a clip! Not that surprising, washers are made on a blanking press which is pretty much identical to what coin blanks are made on. I'm sometimes known as the "clip king" so this will be getting holdered up and put aside for interests sake.

You know I had to go back to Bunnings yesterday and I almost (and I mean almost) diverted to the washer aisle so I could look through the washers for another clip. But thankfully I resisted the urge.

Mark you just know when you have it bad when you start "Noodling" washers :laugh2:
Work first- hobbies later.!!:grin:
I can just see Goldy setting up camp at Bunnings... cold beer and a big pile of washers to noodle. Knowing him, he'd find a heap of upsets and mules too! :)
I don't think so being a non drinker and not collecting clipped washers.
