Not a thief, yet. But she wants mine. She headed up a conspiracy to acquire mine.

Hi jannica, Know what ya mean about Larry's videos....they are great. If you love projects, this will be an addiction. I am working on a 70 compact and it's a SUPRISE around every corner literally. It's all worth it though Did your camper come with this kind of "surprise"?? I couldn't believe that I found this message under the skin, somebody was having a bad day or trying to be funny, can't decide which one! I am planning to leave a much nicer signature behind.. I'm sure you gotta good laugh at least outta that "SUPRISE". One of these days I'm gonna make someone rich leaving surprises in walls of houses we remodel

Hey Pirateslife I remodeled homes my entire adult life and have left my name on the inside of drywall for the last 35 years. Also left a penny in every one nailed to a king stud. Have you ever seen anyone put a drywall nail through a penny?

Well you don't hold it with your fingers. That could be very painful. I slip it under a sheet of drywall on the top of the stack and then start an inch and three eights nail over the penny in that top sheet. Then I hit it once with a dry wall ax and drive it through with one lick. Then I take the penny with the nail through it and pound it into a king stud at about eye level. The door hangars hate it. LOL...

I know this thread is old but as I was perusing threads that had a mention of twisty nails, I came across this and laughed because just this weekend, I uncovered the same message under the paint that covered the brows on our front window. Etched right into the metal. Ugh. Gonna have to buff that out.

The only writing on mine any where was some dimensions and directions for a specific panel and it was written in a beautiful cursive hand writing.
