no i wasn't working at a construction site, just took a shovel from one and brought it to our jumps

karmas a bitch! just buy your tools or even a cheap lock? i know most tools you cant lock up but if you are creative you can tie them up and hoist them into a tree for safe keeping thats what i do.

i also buy all my tools thieving is for homos

Yup recently someone stole a full set of tools from our building spot. We have 4 full sets so we don't have to go hiking to get a set from another area. Our full set included a brand new pick, 3 shovles, a rake and they even stole our PINK icechest but taking out the beers that were in it leaving them behind now that just lame. On a flip note its not that bad considering its the first time its happened and we have been building for a year now.

ive had loads of stuff stolen or moved by people and not returned these bits consisting of
4 shovles
a wheel barrow
2 rakes
1 axe
2 saw
it relay pisses me of though ive found the best cure is to dig a hole and hide all the stuff in it and cover it over with a branch of a tree and scrub that normaly works fine

dont worry guys its all just a big cycle we take the shovels and usually they get taken again but u can get mad if you bought them tho what i do is hide them in a spot no one wud go or just lock them to a tree next time
