Title: Another "paperweight"
Post by: FlintWalker on February 06, 2010, 01:14:08 am

After destroying a perfectly good piece of flint the other night I just couldn't let these things whip me.  Here's my second try at it.  The base needs a little work because it's a little tippy.  I had it sitting good but thought I could make it "just a liiiiitle better".......nope >:(  At least I didn't break the point off. :-\

I'll have to be doubly careful if I ever visit your office, being mindful of both paper cuts and paperweight cuts...

     Shannon, that is awesome! :o  I had no doubt that you would be able to figure it out. 8)  As for the money, just make sure it isn't counterfit.  You might have trouble having trouble passing it...... ;D ;D  Would that be considered " Dirty" money? :P            P.S.
any more broken band saw blades?

Got some of the thinner stuff, but only 3 or 4 feet of the thick stuff.  I'll send it to you if you want it.

     Shannon, sure, I will take a mish mash of different thicknesses, what ever you have on hand.  I will reemburse you for the shipping.  Thanks.  And again that is an awesome piece.  :o You guys are killing me. :o
