GETTING OLD – ISSUE NO. 242

As many of you may already know, I recently remarried May of 2013. I'm still in a transition phase of what to keep and what I need to toss out. I was going through a box of items and found some things that I haven't seen for about 12 years. What I found was my Popular Science 20 in 1 shop guide. I still remember receiving the free gift with my one year subscription. It had everything you could need in order to get the job done. In fact here is a picture of it:     I was telling some of the guys in the warehouse about getting this and many of the younger men had never heard of Popular Science. Wow, did I feel old all of a sudden. Getting this "tool" was the "cats pajamas" in my day. Oh well, I suppose times have changed. In our daily work we all need special guides and tools just like the one I had many years ago. Healthmark offers a tool to help you measure the various diameters of your cleaning brushes. In our case you do not have to buy anything, just ask for it. For the record, I have kept this treasure from the past and it now proudly hangs from my work bench. Now I just need to decide my next project so it can be put back in to use.
