Default Another useful use...

So my wife is always asking me "is this something you can use" when she's about to get rid of something, like the pictured old pot holders I use with the lift to protect paint and stuff.

Now my nephew has out grown his bibs and I thought that would be perfect when I fill up for gas and they fold up nicely in the glove box.

I love it.! Never throw anything away... Within reason. I have delivered 40 years worth of furniture and cabinets padded in my truck bed with my kid's and employees' discarded sweatshirts.
