No matter how tough the factory builds it someone will figure out how to break it. Fact of life.

Oh I have a buddy that does the funky squirrel military stuff for a living. When he gets gear described as indestructible he takes it on as a challenge. I swear this boy can break hammers...

Retired. Finally !!
My Dad always said I could break an anvil. He couldn't say a hammer because when I was young my aim wasn't all that good and I could whap the wooden handle of a hammer on something and snap that head clean off....

My dad's favorite: "Son, you can tear up a mile of train track with a rubber hammer".

My father can weave a tapestry of obscenity. My favorite was the first time I heard him drop the F-bomb. I was maybe 9 or 10 "helping" him work on his lawn mower and busted his knuckle or something along those lines and yells "Awww, fuck a duck!"

I nearly bit through my lip to keep from laughing. He realized what he said, sees me, busts out laughing himself, which causes me to nearly pee my pants roaring. In between wheezing and laughing all I remember was "Don't tell your mother I said that."

We still laugh about it to this day.

My dad never cussed. He wanted to build a new garage. He ask me and my brother how big it should be. We both said 30 x 30 with a 8ft doors min. He built the garage 30 x 26 with a 7ft doors. The day they finished the garage. Dad, my brother and me walked into to look around. Dad does a 360 view of the inside. Stops, and says..........it's too fucking small......damn it. I'm looking at my brother and he's looking at me. And we both bust out laughing. Dad wanted to know what we were laughing about.

Youve just described my nightmare. Dropping the cash for a new garage and looking around after it’s done and finding it too small for my liking. 😂

Figure your square footage, multiply times 1.5 then build. If you pockets are deep and you have the room, double it.

Wifey wants to move. So we been looking to see what's on the market. She see's something that she likes, and I shoot it down because of the garage. I don't really care about the house. Long as it has 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, gas stove and heat, and everything on one floor. No steps. Now the garage/shop. I'm being very picky.

I'm on my phone and don't have my glasses handy, but looks like they broke the axle tube at the FAD housing.
That's gotta suck.
I’d say pretty likely

As you should be. I bought the place I’m in now because I have the room to build the garage/shop I want. Just didn’t expect everything to go double or triple the price so fast. 😂
