This is more of a "Hardware how-NOT-to"...

Nope, just a moment of stupidity. I hung a portable light on the garage door rail and when the door closed, the power cord got caught on the furnace handle and tipped it over.

Fishing season is 12 months long.

Yeah, I got off easy on that one.
Lost 5+ lbs of lead, about $35 worth of hooks (fused together), two pairs of shoes, and a dozen squares of anti-fatigue flooring. I'll take that any day over being horribly burned and/or setting the house on fire!

Glad you weren't near it. I get the willies just thinking what that would be like to have that much lead spill on a person.

For one look at the area you used. It should be ground level and free of clutter.

I've got a bad back, and there ain't no way I'm gonna sit on the floor to pour jigs.
