Lightbulb Silver Sloat! AMAZING MAN!!

Fellow needed a 'shipment' trans-shipped.' No big deal on my part. To 'swap' the cost a 'what would you like?' A few bits and pieces that just aren't available here in the US. Google your heart out, you're close to 'dead meat.'

Box into day's mail, and WAAAAAAY more than I bargained for ... to put it very, very mildly!

Beautiful 'pin vise,' mini-tubes, Geeze, I still have to take an inventory, and find out how to use these bits and pieces.

Part that had me laughing is to get his box open (it was that well packed) took close to 5 minutes. Reminded me of an old story where a crate of eggs were 'dropped shipped' (parachute) into some Base in Antarctica. In the crate was an a note apologizing for the one 'cracked egg,' it was that way when we got it.'

Now, how to play with all the new toys; SS over ran any expectations I could have ever had. Need 'stuff?' Give Dave a call.

Whoozer!

Wink One right, one wrong.

Single Malt. Islay I might add ... yumm!

That aside, opened the 'box' and the contents exceed any of my wildest expectations.
