| I knew it already, because Ted told me. He said Sparta experimented with several exotic woods. I don't expect to see them on eBay however. |

| Mac...I sent that to you in a PM about a month ago. You're letting work interfere with pleasure again. |

You are right -- I need to stop letting work interfere with my passion!
Truthfully, I just didn't remember the specific names and as I had just specifically been working on the Briar 101 and 102, I probably did not pay enough attention to the "whole picture". I am sure I have it and will have to go back and reread this material. Thanks TED. --RJ-- |

| FREE TO A GOOD HOME...The finest TOOL ever made by man or Japanese. I've owned it for 40 years, and used it very little. 4 blades...sharp, dull, pick, file, plus tamper. Free to whoever can guess closest to my birthDATE(YR,MO,DA) between now and tomorrow...this time. Wait'ill you see how HARD the last few questions get cause the free "stuff" gets MUCH better. -ted- |

I think Ed has already nailed it, so I'll add 0356 in the mroning.
The last week, I only have an Internet connection for about 15 minutes right before I go to work in the morning. When I get home in the evening, I have no connection and it remains that way until I go to bed at night. That's why I have been absent from the Forum and answering emails lately . . . --RJ-- |

OS... I owe you a tool. Send me a PM with address, and it'll be on the way. You'll like it.....If you can find it in your "cave".
You missed by 1 day, 1 month, and 1 year. Lot younger than you thought....ted |

1-1-1? Wonder if that means anything?? Actually Ted,I kinda got the impression from different things you had said here and there in the forum that you were pretty close to my age --7-11-50, but probably had a year or three on me.
