One item to each of 4 people. (See how confident I remain despite the disaster of my last attempt.) Limited to people with at least 50 posts on...
I think the "well known member" status is a good way to limit participation to people maintaining an active presence on these boards. So that...
Had these about a million years ago. Asking just because I haven't asked anything in a long time. These are Marcy Prints - block printed on a...
This once had a very specific purpose. Do you know what it is? (I do.) overall length about 8 ¼” width about 3 1/8” thickness about 1/2” weighs...
Anybody know this maker (David Husar)? I've seen some things that look nice. The tiny bit of info I found online suggested that his stuff is...
