Talked to my Dad earlier this evening and he was telling me about the excitement he and his new employeer had this afternoon.
This story starts several days ago when one of his employeers relatives "lost" a pole trailer along with a few other metal items from his property....(No one lives there, it"s just a wooded lot with some equipment their storing) This morning as they passed the property they noticed a blue wrecker backed down the road on the relatives property so they turned around and went back and blocked the road. Seeing the road blocked the guys in the wrecker tried to get away by hitting the front of their truck and trying to push them out of the way...but that didn"t work. Fortunately the guys in the wrecker weren"t armed, something that wasn"t thought about from the beginning (hind site is 20/20 as they say....)...Anyway the law was called and the guys in the wrecker told as much. Their response was basically "what can we do to make this go away". Needless to say they sat right there until the cops arrived and took them away in cuffs.
Someone passing saw the comotion and the wrecker which resulted in a call to the relative telling him where it had been seen earlier in the day. This turned into a scavanger hunt at one local junk yard that turned up the missing pole trailer and several other missing items. Talks with that junkyards owner then led them to another yard in the area that turned up even more missing items. I believe by the end of the day they found everyhing that had been stolen and it was all attributed to the guys in the blue wrecker.....who, thankfully are now cooling their heels behind bars.........
Out of all of this I can believe and even somewhat understand the theft of the "scrap" metal from a "vacant" lot to be sold for cash, especially in this economy.....But the gall to get caught red handed, wreck a man"s truck trying to get away, and then ask the same man "what could be done to make this go away" when you find out the police were on the way.....That goes beyond the believable and just makes you wonder where some people get the ba!!s and gall to do the things they do....

Today's Featured Article - The Nuts and Bolts of Fasteners - Part 2 - by Curtis Von Fange. In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes. In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together. When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and
