    Default Darn - where'd I...

    …leave that coffee cup?? Here?

    Hmm – it’s not here: Maybe...

    Or here : ????

    Or in with these… : Where?

    Maybe it’s under one these boxes?.. : Checking...

    It’d stick out like a sore thumb here: Too flat

    Not there either…: Where could it be?

    Oh wait – I remember… there it is…in the back…: Cold now...

    Found it just in time, was starting to have the shakes…: Gotta get another cup...

    Can't wait to open the boxes with the GOOD stuff...

    Cheers -

    Rob

    Hi Rob

    You've gotta get some new stock in for your shops. Some of the stuff you are selling is beginning to look a bit frayed around the edges.

    So Rob, how long till your stuff starts appearing on the tables, hmmm?

    Some people try to corner the market all by themselves...

    I'm a frayed you're correct...

    Just sorting out some of the collection for cataloging...sneaky guy that I am, I didn't shoot any pictures with the really good stuff in it....

    We're going to get this lot in circulation through our stores - and at trade shows... but have a lot of documenting to do first!

    Cheers -

    Rob you need to get a few truckloads of sawdust in and spread it everywhere.
    Then whatever you need is always in the sawdust.

    You are a sick man Rob Lee. Just as well that there is a lot of distance between Aus and Canada. You should not tease us like this. On the other hand it is just as well the distance is there or rust might set in from our drooling over everything.

If he gets it without working for it; he's a parasite; and if he accumulates it after a life time of hard work, people call him a fool who never got anything out of life."

    Rob it'd be great if you could gives us an extensive test and use guide to every last tool in your collection on different types of timbers would be a bonus, should keep you busy for say the next....200 years. Or you could select 100-200 "guest" testers to do the hard yards of trying them all out and reporting on the results for you to publish
