Saved by the philsbury biscuit!

Post by Stevem »

Last evening during the snow storm I decided to crack open one of my old Bass guitars and shield up the cavity's.
I got things apart and then found out I did not have enough shielding tape on hand to do the job, and we where out of Aluminum foil also.
Two minutes later I was walking thru the kitchen as my girlfriend was cracking open a tube of biscuits and low and behold there was enough foil for me to finish up the job, lol!

Free foil inside cigarette packs too, but nobody smokes anymore. Well tobacco anyway... :mrgreen:

Remind not to ever tell anyone about the time I wrapped foil from a pack of cigarettes around a blown fuse in a '72 Chevy.

The only good part of that story is that I learned something.

Yup! They blow for a darn good reason and in a car as opposed to a amp your then asking for life threatening hurt!
