I'm on Marthas Vineyard where you??

Well, I can't exactly show you my work area, because I work where ever there's a flat surface or a kitchen table. I can, however, show you some of the stuff in my "stash" area.

Wow you have a lot of random stuff and about the golfball I only have a couple so I kinda treasure them too even though I shoot them out of my launchers a speeds reaching 600fps
But whenever I lose one out of the 5 I have I am devestaded(not really just annoyed)

Yes, I've only got one golfball; I found it in the woods, and it's probably as old as I am, but I treasure it.

That's going to create a lot of one ball jokes.

To be honest, I don't keep many golfballs around, mostly because I just don't build launchers in sizes that can fire them. Dunno, maybe that will change some day.

I have even less. I work with a blow torch, a budget set of bog standard tools - and the obligatory Dremel of course. I do occasionally borrow a workmate to help.

Actually, I have another multi tool as well, as I saw a box of replacement rotary tool bits in a store I was in, and it was £20 on it's own - or if I bought a £20 rotary tool, I got the set free with it.
The choice was obvious - and it added around 60 more bits bundled with the tool. But it should be said the tool in question isn't very powerful. 18W to the Dremel's 125W - but it is a slimmer body, and is more comfortably held like you would a pen for engraving or such.

Frankly, as the hammer in the budget set bent the first time I used it, and the mole grips won't lock properly it's a wonder I can build anything at all.

Why do I work with low quality tools? Well, when I'm a student, and each of my recent project has cost £200 to 300 ($400-600 USD) a pop just for materials, I have to cut back somewhere - I also tend to use cheap ammo, nothing more than a few pence a pop except for very rare use.

I hate all of you I have almost no money and almost no materials. I have nothing...NOTHING!!! anyway here are some pics... wait a minute. Apperently my camera takes pictures that are too big. Oh well it was just a table covered in my dad's crap, some tool boxes, and about 10k worth in homade bikes

daberno you got some piping:)
make a monster!

My parents don't seem to understand why i have so much!

They hate all of it lying around. That picture was just taken recently and i'm not in the middle of any project so it's actually tidier than usual

so do your parents a favor and build one big gun of all that piping and they cant complain anymore

I'll tell them that next time they tell me to clean it up
