Random discoveries

Sign in to disble this ad
Have you ever gone through your shop and discovered things you forgot you had?

I was on a week long cleaning binge, and re-arrangement tear in my shop, and found these....LMAO

Remnants from when I was teaching repair and refretting.

Wanted to see if anyone else has had similar occurances, such as parts, tools, etc.

Sorry Will I completely forgot about these. I was teaching a class on repair and fretting, and had scooped up a bunch of these at NAMM in 92 for that. After 3 cycles of classes, the training was cancelled, and I packed them away, only to be found last week....LMAO


As for a price, I can only say they will be about 45% of what Stew Mac sells theirs for. I can't quote prices in the thread.
PM me if you might want one.

I'll give the guys here first dibs before posting on Ebay, as a courtesy.
