Apologies to my recipient. I have stuff gathered, but my post office has been out of large boxes forever now. I'd use a medium, but the "ballast" wouldn't fit. I'm mostly confident it'll go in a large. Soon!

Just finished boxing up at work to ship tomorrow.  Consider the bubble wrap an extra bonus.

This will be a long post, short story version is Matthewmcl hooked me up and gave me a spectacular box of stuff. I suck at technology so hopefully I will do it justice

 

First up, this cool guitar pic, that's awesome!

Your assumptions were correct too, and the magazine fix is something I will definitely try

The Remington 51 is a special gun to me and all the brass (plus the CorBon DPX) is gonna be a very awesome thing. I need to reload for it so I don't have to try to track down the ammo around here.

 

Various signed things by drivers, Awesome!

 

A cool pistol light /laser!

 

 

Some 454 ammo, which by the laws of Man and Guns means I need to buy a 454! I've had my eye on a carbine for a bit.....

Many cool stickers

Some brass that I may or may not buy a gun for one day

So much cool stuff!

I love Vegemite too

 

I missing a lot of pictures of the cool stuff but my Internet is poor and my tech skills are worse. I love it all, thank you very much Matthew!

I dropped my box off at the post office before noon on December 29, and it was scheduled to arrive on the 2nd. Tracking shows it in Springfield MA eight hours later, but it hasn't moved since, and it still has a long journey ahead of it.

I'm starting to think that maybe the rattle wasn't ok.sad

Two days later, and it still hasn't moved.

I hope it's not stuck at the at the intersection of "Hey, that really heavy box has no return address on it..." and "The x-rays indicate that almost everything inside this one could potentially be shrapnel."

Opening it for inspection would answer very few questions.

After working around the pile on my bench I finally boxed it up and threw it towards Tahlequah, OK.

 

Bombs away!

Bombs away to Florida (scheduled for pickup monday). 

 

box received: new rule proposal - don't send peoe back all the E36 M3 they got rid of last year laugh. Very anti-climactic. The 1:18 corvette and calendar are new, most everything else was regifted back to me, and I just cut open the outgoing box and added to it

In reply to Antihero :

Glad you enjoyed it all. All the cool signed car stuff and stickers/tags are re-gifts; I am horrible at getting that stuff. I have found 1000 rnds of .32 ACP online for $480, if you want to shoot a whole bunch... The threaded/tapped thing for pressure testing is also a regift. The vegemite is from Daemon. I think it is past the exp date, I am not sure if that means it got better or worse.

In reply to Patrick :

In all fairness, I think i've only had one repeat customer, and I've played enough times, and had enough of a stash going  that I couldn't tell you where MOST of what's in my box came from. Even then I'm not 100% sure he got back anything he'd given me previously. It's a weird situation.  I contemplated sending all my tour letters along for funzies- but I THINK I accidentally started a tradition again. we'll see how offended my recipient is.

Received my package from the depths of Florida today.

 looks promising

a bliepoint air hammer, sweet. Wheel locks, what I think are wheel lock tools.

 oil fillet change kit for...I haven't researched yet. A torque stick, not sure what the orange handled tool is.

 fancy snap on ball head keys, shift bushings for a sonic, what appears to be a flute or mill cutter of some sort, a torx plus socket, and what looks like maybe caliper hardware. 

 

Thanks RonnieFND, and thanks Hungary Bill for continuing to let us pass our shops around the world.

Mine was delivered a few days ago. Hopefully it was received. Maybe UPS shipping wasn't the best idea.

Sorry for the delayed post, I received a box from Pennsylvania yesterday.

Mmmmm, Legacy Box!

First layer yielded some cool stickers, a shop rag, first aid kit and some coozies...

What look like power loads for a masonry fastener tool, more sticker, a pine tree, ice scraper, Hot Wheel and a grille lighter that looks like an adjustable wrench.

Well hello old friend, we meet again! laugh

I see the White Pony and Fat & Furious are still rolling together.  I thought the box looked familiar, I think I first got these from Javelin a few games back.

Screwdriver / pry bar (lol), electrical tape with some wire and what I think might be an idler pulley?  Gray box below...

Decent little socket set in the gray box will find a home in one of the cars for sure.   Nice box, thanks to AWSX1686!

My box is going out hopefully today. I tried to include items that are "stuff" rather than "junk!"

Was on the other side of town today and they had boxes. Packed tonight, and will hit the system Monday on my break.

I think I collected those party mirrors for about three years before I figured out what to do with them. They're all visor mirrors out of Camrys and Avalons.
