Never mind the 1/4 in mailbox...
You loose sleep at night, designing tooling for your next project. (no stock on hand, etc. ) Then the next day, you are awaiting a call back, can't run the shop till the phone call is over. (that's right now)
How about lets be careful with that 'old' tool junkie thing...
Just kidding... too many years have piled up... not to worry...
Me too John! But as they say "age and treachery will overcome youth and enthusiasm!" That is why if I was in a bind for some material like T Bredehoft, I would be out cutting up some of those mailboxes!

You collect tooling for a machine you don't even own yet.
