It was mint condition......
« on: August 30, 2019, 04:18:44 AM »
So I rolled out the 89 red mist for a quick rinse. It's only been used a handful of times(6-8), more dusty than anything. It was mint condition.... Until ten minutes ago.
I rolled her outside, slid the lid into the bail, grabbed the hose and sprayed the lid....... And over she went.

I'm such a dumbass, I should have known.... Or at least I should have drank more coffee.....

I bet those letters you screamed were in four letter increments though! Sorry for your loss, I will have to remember that info about the hose and the lid in the bale.

Also, you know they say pics or it didn't happen, how bad is it?

I sure hope everyone's Friday started off better than mine.

I spoke with a buddy of the phone this morning, we talked about this. I couldn't help but laugh when he said to advertise it as "lightly abused" [emoji2]

That sucks, but the silver lining is that the damage is on the rim.  Like @Dc_smoke309 said... it could  have been worse.

Just looks like you modified it to have a “secure lock lid notch” to me.

Something similar happened to me recently.   Man, I was mad!  It wouldn’t be vintage without a scar or two to tell a story.
