Default What a Prof

The wife had an old treadle sewing machine that she didn't want. So a search on the internet found a organisation the collects old tools and sewing machines, refurbs them and ships them out to Africa.

This afternoon I took it over and got talking with their workshop manager and was given a walk around their place.

There was this 'interesting' old wooden box, I took a peek inside, a Record 050 combination plane with all blades and extras and a 071 router plane with all blades.

'Someone gave us then but it's not the sort of thing we can use in Africa - would you like them?'

Silly question ...

S'cuze me while I wipe the drool off the monitor.

Seems a need for some cosmic project to provide in return.

Sorry all you Lords & Ladies out there. I thought just knowing of my luck would be sufficient to get you jealous, I always am when I read of someone’s luck!

Unfortunately I’m away ‘Up North’ on business this afternoon (currently lunchtime browsing from work) and will not be back until Wednesday Evening.

But I promise to post some ‘Droolworthy’ pics later in the week.
