Do you have any Lee Valley boxes you misplaced before getting around


> to using their contents?

That's the kind of dorker I aspire to be! I have only worked my way up to misplacing HF and Griz boxes.


Thank you.

No, thank you! ;-)

(Actually, I was going to do up a web site with a nifty logo and some kind of web forum or blog or something, but my motivation left me, and I decided I'd better just post the message and get the idea out there before I forgot about it. I welcome any ideas putting together a right and proper BOID, and...)

...as a Charter Member, if you pay $150 a year for three years, up front, you can take home a premium quality high tensile strength polymer resin drill guide with the BOID logo scratched on it, or, at your option, a sanding sponge. You will then be eligible to test out new merchandise from over three hundred different vendors and share *your* opinion with them.

If you can remember where you left the stuff.

Hurry! We are only accepting 123,650 Charter Members, so don't miss your chance to be a bona fide Charter Member of BOID. Hurry!

We do allow HF and Griz boxes. Even Homier if you insist.

(SWMBO thought this was hillarious too.)

A sister group is PLANE -- People Lying About Needing Equipment to finish that next ww project.

Have any of you brothers seen my Stud Finder? I need to locate it, so that when I lose the replacement I'll have a backup! :)

She's over here at my house ;-) yuk yuk but seriously, my stud finder beeps and blinks... when I lose it, I just walk around swinging a tubafor.

I lost my membership card, can I still get in?

I'll trade you a free Charter Membership in BOID for a membership in PLANE. It sounds like I need to join your group as well.

No, but you can borrow mine if I can find it. It's either in my son's room, out in the storage shed, or maybe on the mantle in the living room. I think.

For some reason I suck at finishing. Even poly doesn't come out right. On most "in the house" projects I let SWMBO do all the finishing -- that way I know it will be acceptable. The PLANE solution is naturally a HVLP sprayer outfit. If I had a two car garage shop I'd probably already have one, but (unfortuantely ;-) there just isn't space in my one car shop. I'm finding help at FROG, Finishing Rejects Overcomers Group.

It's on its way to you as soon as I figure out where I put the forms.

And you can join the "other" group - the one that MUST use power tools:

SPONGE - Society for the Prevention of Nahmites Gettin' Everything!

Now wait just a dang minute. I'm a Charter Member of SPONGE, and I even have the jacket (because I cashed the check for $3... oops) but the SPONGE I belong to is the SOciety for the Prevention of Neanders Gettin' Everything.
