Random thought - How about putting together a special RCM home shop
brush assortment package so there is a one-stop package for us RCM guys to order? It would make it easier for us to avoid the last minute runs to Home Depot for some inferior imported products. Pete C. |

Great minds think alike...I want to do an ebay store and feature kits and, best of all, SECONDS!!! My seconds are a crack here and a missing tuft there, or a knot in the wood, or a bit of rust. I sell them into the asbestos removal industry but they are a spotty market. I need suggestions as to what brushes and quantities make the freight worthwhile. |

This is a good plan, since brushes purchased as-needed can be
expensive. I deal with this by purchsing brushes whenever I see them CHEAP, be it flea markets or hardware store sales, closeouts, etc. A site on Ebay would be great for this....buy 5 dozen brushes for $0.35 or so, per brush. I consider a 1" brush cheap if its priced between 25 and 49 cents. What do you people normally pay? The quality of the brush must be such that I can use it also for a quick touch-up job around the shop, garage, or yard, and then toss it. Wolfgang |

Gunner has been the first to join: "THE BRUSH OF THE MONTH CLUB".
You too can receive a new brush delivered to your door each and every month. If you don't like the selection, you can return the postage due post card by the 10th of the month. If you would just like to try a new style of brush each month, sign up for: "THE BRUSH SWAP CLUB". Gunner sends his brush to Harold, Harold to Grant, Grant to Abrasha, Abrasha to Eric...and so on each month. This way you too can SEE exactly what everyone is working on by the spooge they left on the brush. I don't want ANY brush back from Proctologically ANYBODY...I don't WANT to know what that brush has been doing! "Gunner Asch" wrote in message ...

Gunner Sounds good, most every RCMer should have at least one 4.5" AG and a 6" BG and something that needs chip brushes. Several sizes of hand brushes in SS and probably also brass would be good.

I, and I suspect others with dial- up modems, could never find it. Sneak a small note in here. :-) ...lew... |

How about an Amazon or Yahoo store instead.

How about a package for welding uses and another for milling/turning? Around $40-50 worth of stuff ought to keep me going for a year or two and slides pretty well under the purchase radar. Pete |
