Nuts in the saw....

[TellicoTurning]

I have some busy busy chipmonks around my place... assume they are chipmonks... I have a little 9" Ryobi band saw that I use to cut acrylics and deer antler so as not to ruin the blade on the big saw... I started on this little saw when I first started turning pens about 8 years ago, but mostly now is just sits in the box under the chop saw... today was the first time I've used it in several months.... I turned it on and had this godawful rattle coming out of it.... quickly shut it down and opened it up and this is what I found....

You should just buy an empty hamster cage to keep in your shop. Might keep the critters out of your tools!

Good thing the little bugger wasnt in there when you turned it on......

I had a field mouse living in my riding mower. I didn't know and started it. He ended up in little pieces all over the inside of the housing cover. Now I have to check the housing every time before I start the lawn mower. I have taken out 3 nests in one summer and that was with the mower in the garage.
