    Uh, A Few More Chisels Arrived Today

    I bought them, I guess...

    I guess my public must be pretty huge then.

    You know Tom, if you keep having all that iron and steel shipped to Tampa, Florida is going to sink into the sea!!

    At some point this is going to be something you won't admit to anymore.

    Boy they saw you coming!....You will make them pretty I am sure! Are you going to start selling? You might have a buyer here....I am a bit lazy on rust and reworking stuff....your "after" sure looks great!

    Ok Tom,

    Somewhere along the line you are going to have to come to grips with this, and admit that you have a serious problem But it sure is fun eh?

    Nice haul,
    John

    Tom, take up womanizing and drinking maybe even gambling. It's got to be cheaper I'm not buying as I don't want to admit to another addiction

    The first step to any addiction is to admit you have one.

    So...don't!

    Want to double your $5 per chisel entry fee?

    I'd certainly be willing to help you part with some medium {1/4" to 5/8"ish} sized mortisers {fully rusted, no handled kind} if you find "extras". No need to make handles, or clean em up.
