Tool insurance!

[Aaryn NZ]

Hey folks. :xyxthumbs:

So my gorgeous Wife asked me to snap some photos of my polishers & their serial numbers to put on record for insurance reasons. I guess trying to convince an insurance company that a ‘one man band’ actually has this many polishing machines could prove difficult.

Then this happened! There are a couple there that are ‘spares’ there is one Flex 3401 that is pretty special to me as it’s signed my Mike Phillips. And there are a couple there that seldom get much action.

Ange shook her head at me as they continually came out & took there place in line . . . In my defence - one of those cordless Flex XFEs belongs to Ange. :buffing:

Nice collection!

I think she just wanted to find out how many polishers you bought without her knowing about it :p
Now you've shown her all you got and she has proof of it.

That’s a whole lotta buffers!! I got that lil Milwaukee tool it’s amazing for headlights and small spots. I want the Mille but can’t decide on that or the flex cordless.

Damn! That's probably $6000+ in machines. Don't tell Ange I said that but very very impressive collection.

I agree, its a fantastic tool & built real nice too. I have the Milwaukee Cordless rotary also & its a solid performer & it gets a fair amount of work. I like the Mille, I just don't 'love it'. For me the tallness of the tools head is a little uncomfortable & I prefer to wrap my hand around the shroud. If its the Cordless Flex 3401 you're referring to in terms of your decision between that & the RUPES Mille - My money would already be spent on the Flex . . . just my opinion. :buffing:

Awh geeze Paul I'm pretty sure she heard you typing that! :ban: Hahaha.

You're probably right though which is a little scary to think of. Then on the other hand I think of how many cars these tools have buffed out & the money they have made me . . . . & I wonder why I'm broke!!! Hahaha! No seriously though, they serve me well & their value is why the pictures were needed for insurance records.

Now when my Autogeek friends come down to New Zealand to visit nobody willbe left out, we can all polish at once. :buffing::buffing::buffing:

Very nice collection. I probably have too many for a "one man shop" that isn't even a professional. But they serve their purpose :) I'm sticking too that.

And I'm sure my wife would love to visit New Zealand some day, so if we do, I'll swing by and take some polishing time :) The women can go out shopping or sightseeing :)

[John U]

Smart wife! You now have proof for your insurance company........... or you had all you friends over with their machines to see who has the longest cord!!! :props:

Now remember to put your records off site... just because!

[VISITOR]

nice, flex ftw!

Funny you say that. I was trying to get him to smoke with me when we were in Florida for Detail Fest. Good times!

Awesome set of polishers you have Aaryn!

It's smart to take pictures of all of them for insurance if you have a break-in. Do that with the other hardware you have in shop too.

Now it's time to ask your wife to take out hers hidden collection of polishers LOL.
