What if it Snows?

@MACK E-6 Look at the verticals between the horizontal lines.



Now can you see it? The edges of the vertical lines are the circles.

Grade 8 bolts are dyed yellow. If you bought grade 8 bolts recently you would know this

 

All this time I thought it was chinese steel making them appear yellow to us anglos.....

 

I probably shouldn't laugh at that...but....I did laugh.

Funny is funny even if not PC enough for the masses.

Some of the best comedians, regardless of race tell some #### funny jokes about race. Fluffy, Kevin Hart, Jim Gafigan, Eddie Murphy(when he still did stand up), Richard Pryor, George Carlin, etc etc.

I think all in this thread are aware, I have a pretty weird sense of humor.

@lovesthedrive Maybe a helpful hint, maybe not but....

The magnets inside of a computer hard drive, are usually(in my experience, all of them) made of Neodymium Iron. Very magnetic. Good magnets, and work great.

Anyhow the point of all that above is....Get one. Attach it to a stick, piece of a 2x4, etc Awesome for picking up dropped bolts, nuts, screws, basically anything magnetic. Can't speak for them on the road, but I know for home use, it's a good tool. I hate bending and looking for little screws, etc. Being as their so powerful, they do a good job. Edit to add: Of course it only works with items that are magnetic.

If your interested in trying it out, and can't find any to try with let me know via a PM and I'll send you a couple. I usually have a decent supply on hand. The rest I sell to folks who use them for various things. From crafting to the silly tool I described above. No charge of course. They don't cost me anything and their cheap to mail if not sending a ton of them.

Its fun watching people try to pry them off like it's a kitchen magnet.

I know I know...silly idea, but it works!

Can't forget the unrelated to anything in this post meme....

That’s not a circle.
That’s a distortion.

 

Ok normally your posts are fun and interesting. But this one is plain "huh"?
I think your saying I lost bolts down inside and I need a retreival tool (I have one and dont need another). The engine is out in the open on a engine stand. The parts I have left to assemble are in a garden cart with open perforations. Contents of the cart are things like cylinder head, manifolds, clutch, 80 pound flywheel and so on. No bolts the size of carrots. They were laid down some where and I dont remember where.

 

Actually its a zinc coating with anodizing as opposed to dipping the bolts for corrosion resistance.
