Many will remember my "Machinist Brush" trials and all the help you gave me
with testing and feedback. I just got word that it was included in a big,
German/US brush company's new catalog to come out in a few months. They
forecast 20k units per year to start. They LOVED the applications and
write-ups that you guys and gals did for me. My very favorite response was
from an Aluminum caster that used the brush to sweep molten Aluminum off the
sprue holes on a mold. The employees had been using a plastic broom. They
tried the Machinist brush and the employees said: "This Good, No Fire." (I
have to dig-out the whole story, it was great!) A lot of them were good and
showed truly innovative uses; stuff I NEVER would have thought of. Thanks
again, I owe you all a beer.

Now that I've cracked the nut, there are two other huge brush companies that
will most likely catalog them.

(Gunner, I WILL make some from fiber for you this year, I promise!)
