Score - Pelican case.

DMK · 05-11-2011, 05:16 PM

Gotta love it when the 'boss' wants the shop cleaned up...

We were told to clean up a shop area at work and "throw out all that crap"
There was a hard case from some obsolete equipment, an older version of a Pelican case, made by Hardigg.
They appear to have been bought out by Pelican. Anyway the case is the 1400 size and after a little cleaning it is home and dry.

Now the question is, how do I keep my wife's grubby little hands off of it.

As soon as I walked it in the door, she tried snagging it.
I have a large travledor so I think this will be re-purposed into a camera/electronics carry case.

Hide it and tell her you lost it.

Nice.

TheCigarNut · 05-11-2011, 06:32 PM

dang - nice! I say either the 'I lost it' card or finders keepers : )
either way - very cool!

DMK · 05-11-2011, 07:35 PM

The added kicker is, I'm waiting on the 'boss' to decide on another case with an ultrasound something or another....
The damn thing is in a Zero Halliburton case

I think it's the Camera Case 18x13x6

TBone · 05-11-2011, 08:52 PM

Tell her its a work case and she's not allowed to have it...

05-15-2011, 07:27 PM

Nice case you got there!

Nice Score!!

CRIMPS · 05-18-2011, 01:53 PM

Perfect!

BTcigars · 05-18-2011, 04:53 PM

Nice find...looks like your new herfing case

I don't know....a man gets very few chances to REALLY please his woman. I would give it up. If you have a large
herf case, you also likely have more cigars than you actually need, which would indicate that you have a relatively
flexible and forgiving spouse. Most can get a little irked when packages show up in the mail or you blow a hundred
in a cigar store. I always believe that you take the easy chances to please the spouse, because we, being men,
are usually not very good at doing the right thing by sheer instinct. So we need some mulligans now and then.

Thanks for blowing it....

I of course open this to read just as the wifey walks up behind me and reads this over my shoulder....
"See he thinks you should give it to me"....

Not the kind of "give it to me" I had in mind....

I'll give it to you if I can give it to you?

OLS · 05-19-2011, 04:37 PM

Oh, she doesn't get off the hook that easy. That's why they call it a give and take.
Other than that, sorry, I do tend to ruin things for everybody, and often.
I DO find that you never get until you give.

longknocker · 05-19-2011, 04:51 PM

What Is She going To Use It For???

OLS · 05-19-2011, 05:50 PM

She's gonna carry part of Darryl around in it.

Nope, broke her heart.
It is going to be my pipe case as soon as I replace the foam inside.
