The drying is just the medium (mineral spirits) evaporating for the application of the dry film technology. It's oil free. Sorry, I'm sure y...

I would u...

I've seen titanium chopsticks, though I carry 3-4 metal pens on me at all times anyways (hand a young child a pocket knife and a pencil, ask em which one they'd use to stab a sibling).

Mucho gracias deacon!!

No John. The Fourm started in May 2000. A foul up during a software or database upgrade in 2004 resulted in the start dates of everyone registered at that point getting reset to Sept 2004. That's why you, me, and Patrick all have that date. If you want to see some of the really old stuff, this is a...
