Galoots I spotted a tractor collector out near Burridge, ON. He is probably single, based on the evidence presented here: http://galootopedia.com/old-tools_wiki/images/b/bc/All_in_a_row.jpg In actual oldtools news I am busy making a box and set of disks for a nice lady in the SCA. The box is not turned, but carved. I thought it would be cool to leave tool marks that would tell a story to those who could read it. The box interior was roughed out with a centre bit, then finished with chisels. http://galootopedia.com/old-tools_wiki/images/thumb/0/0d/Box.jpg/450px-Box.jpg -- Darrell LaRue Oakville ON Wood Hoarder, Blade Sharpener, and Occasional Tool User |

First advice I ever got for collecting things (like tractors) was to never neatly arrange them all in a row. Makes it way too easy for SWMBO to count them. Better to scatter them around the property. Paul Honore (trying to stay cool in CT) =================================================== |

That being said, I practice the above philosophy, just in case. |

Don't be so sure. Neighbor: So how many planes do you have? Me: I don't know, maybe 70. SWMBO: If you count the ones wrapped in rags, packed in file boxes under the shelves in the garage probably over a hundred. Kevin living in Chantilly with a wife who puts up with a lot. |
