I lost my money clip a while back and have been using a large paper clip in the interim. I have some spare German silver patchbox lids handy. I'm wondering if the material is "springy" enough for a money clip.
I just ran across this set of 3 brass block planes by Windsor at Harbor Freight. They will make excellent practice plates and/or nice gifts for friends or for sale. The set was less than $15 and probably cheaper if you have coupons.
Just an early heads-up. I just read in another forum that Jerry passed away around 4:30 Friday morning of an apparent heart attack. Perhaps others will fill in details as time progresses.
Sam,
You're not keeping up with your pledge membership renewals. Same thing happened last year. My Paypal acct is set up to auto-renew my pledge which it did in March. However, it doesn't indicate under my name that I donated. It's a little thing, but does warrant some recognition.
Looks like Sam's got his work cut out for him. A "bot" appears to be going nuts in the Polls forum. Hope it doesn't spread to the other forums......it'll be a nightmare.
