So I was cleaning up this head,, I had just finished crack testing it,, and I noticed that there was all this dirt stuffed done two of the stud holes... I thought ""thats strange, I don't remember this one being dropped in the dirt"", so I started poking it out with a screw driver, I noticed that there was something in there... I thought,,, thats a bug? So out came the tweesers, I pulled out a spider, and another one, and another one and another one... I didn't bother counting them,, but there has gotta be 20 of them.... brrrrrrryikeess

Nothing like a good wasp nest eh.. :wink:
I had one in the end of my Mk1 S crank after it laid in the dirt under a house (not mine) for 14 years. :lol:

freakin tell me about it... I'm used to spiders and snakes and stuff,,, but still, I was tempted to just drop the bastard in my sooper doooper home made caustic tank and cook the little rangers.

I reckon its gotta be a wasp nest. They love the spiders I have noticed so they are always welcome in my shed,,,,,,,........, kinda,,, I just couldn't believe how many were stuffed in the two stud holes!! It would have taken some effort I reckon.

I was gana make some crack about how 5 port heads really bite so now I'm going to just by brand new 8 ports... I was trying to work something out but I thought it would just sound cheesy,,, so thanks for doing it for me Tombo :lol:

oh yeah,,, the funky green ones that look like lollies,,, (don't eat them :roll: :lol: ),,, I think they are some kind of Orb spider of something.. is there a zooligist in the house? :lol:

Mud wasps are the biggest pain in a shed , it's amazing how small a hole they can use and just how many spiders they can cram into them stuffed with eggs .

Hop you gave the head a good blast out with compressed air PK , who knows where else the little buggers built , plenty of little holes in a head for them ...
