He keeps every cut-off and bent bracket in a labeled bucket, said he hasn't bought a new piece of angle iron in 4 years. Half of me thinks it's hoarding and half of me just built a gate hinge from his junk last Tuesday. Where do you draw the line on saving scraps?
Best tool in the shop" is a bold claim for a pile of bent metal, but honestly my garage looks like a scrap yard too. I keep every little piece thinking I'll use it someday and then I just buy new stuff anyway. Pretty sure my bucket is just where bolts go to die.
