Lets talk feeler gauges

After an engine block, 750 cc & crank came back from machine shop, I put in the bathtub and give'em a good wash to remove all metal fillings +++. My mom was screaming and was very upset, so my dad intervene and said "it's better that we know what Peter is doing and where...instead of being it unknown"...
When in winter, overhauling and porting a 2-stroke, 175cc engine was completed, I let it sit on cabinet near my bed until spring..

More than certain, everyone has similar stories
