Lion, wish this had been posted about 6 weeks ago, before I drilled through a Tortoise, killing it, when installing switch indicator lights. New motto: “Look twice, drill once.”

LOL

But, I thought that nothing could kill a Tortoise. Are you sure?

Thanks for sharing. That is funny![:P]

Edit: Sorry: I thought that was on someone’s layout as the drill looked like a drywall screw!

You should try that on your layout. Drill a deep hole all the way down to the wine cellar. Insert long straw. Be happy.[:-,]

It looks as though someone drove a giant drywall screw in from above. Maybe the streets department was having trouble with its sidewalks peeling up.
