High Tony, Thank you for checking in and asking questions, TO ME, that means a-lot I do have a three issues, 1]...screen shot from my cart, 2- spools of thread. they would fit in a $8.00 USPS flat rate envelope or box, I left the site and bought else where. Money is tight. 2].., My last order. LOVE the $30.00 sides I grabbed 4. I also ordered a left foot stamp. I have the right foot, but the left was backordered months ago. Instead of zeroing the stamp on my order. I was sent a treble clef stamp. wth am I supposed to stamp with that? Send me a L foot. so I can have 2 feet instead of one. I am walking i circles here. help me out 3].. From the date I place an order, what does Springfield consider a decent / proper / typical amount of time till the order ships? All in all. Your friendly staff and the customer service is the best I have encountered

Go to a hvac company or the county dump [my playground] or craigs list, you are looking for the squirrel cage [fan/motor] out of a home heating/cooling unit build a wood box, insert the fan into the box. use a 4''' pvc toilet flange screwed to the box with 4'' pipe routed outside on the other end of the box. cut another4''''' hole this is the intake.

Do you mind If i step in with a few words and advice? being that i have been soldering for over 45 years I have a little experience and a tip or 2 When soldering the man thing is the 2 pieces being clean and the flux The flux is the difference between success and failure let me strongly suggest this flux. tip 2, flux works by eating [acid] the metal., gets rid of the old and exposes the new It just does not know when to stop. So after soldering your work, spray or dunk your work in a solution of baking soda and water. This neutralizes the flux tip 3. try and find a torch tip with a small blue pointed tip, not a humongo flame thrower

Brass Line 24 Snaps. A losing venture?
Frodo replied to JerseyFirefighter's topic in Hardware and Accessories
I made a joke a couple months ago that i was actually serious about A group buy, Instead of paying out the woot woot for 4 snaps. We all pitch in our money and buy a quantity I for one am up for a group buy. BUT. I want no part of the buying, collecting the funds or the distribution. In other words. I will pitch in some bucks for snaps As many people we have i do not ee any reason we can not score 10 or 20K complete snaps for a very good price -
I simply do not understand all the hub bub about stones and stuff. I make my own blades and after i have gotten it razor sharp i no longer need a stone unless I frigged up and dropped it. or a long period of time has elapsed. I have an assortment of pretty colored rouge i use on my strop. And YES, I have used and will use again, A bit of sandpaper on a ornery needle . I am a practical type of man. I have sandpaper laying on the bench for edge touch up so it may or may not get used on whatever I deem necessary at the time I use it. Ya'll stop bickering and gather around for a big ole group hug
