I left a cheater pipe in the fan shroud of my Monte Carlo. I found it when I developed a large coolant leak.

During the remodel of my basement I walled up a bottle of flavored bourbon (nasty stuff) just to give a future generation something to wonder about.

That's an awesome idea, but don't let your helper know that there was an upside.

Couldn't find the drill so he used a screwdriver (probably.)

Bunch of people I used to work with did similar things. That's how we sent a foot and a half long screwdriver and an inclinometer for a tour of the country one time.

It's also why when I used to pull floorboards on ERJ-145's at the start of an inspection it was "free tool day." I had at least a dozen inspection mirrors and harbor freight flashlights after a year.

BOOO!!! HISSSS!!! I was totally excited for a drill-shaped hole, a perfect silhouette.

In reply to pinchvalve:

The hard part would be rigging up a light and buzzer to go off if the drill touched the drywall when trying to pull it out.
