      so we take that as hint and stay clear of rez 'cause we have no idea where he or it has been....

      he probably doesn't know either...

          Boy you got that right, I feel like tying a fishing line around mine so I can real it in after someone "borrows" it!

          Funny how when I have a cheapy Stanley nobody seams to want to use it.

            Y'all are making fun of Rez, but i notice his Johnson is 12" long.

          2. mike585 | | #21

            I was waiting for that to come up.  You only noticed that because he seems to have marked it off in inches, like it was a ruler or something.

            I was snowed in here for 1 day a bit ago. I don't envy you too much.

            I was reading the "Grease" thread and saw Bob's new signature. I gotta go get in the tavern till 2007. I want to say some STUFF and catch up on The Travails of a Dinosaur.

            They probably won't see the request till 2007 in any case, and by then, I won't want in anymore.

          It really does have/had a plastic coating on it. Can't remember where I got it from.

          The plastic apparently started flaking at various points then moisture got in underneath it and did the deed.

          I suppose I could try a light wire wheel to see if I can remove it.

          be or try finding a stainless steel replacement rule for it.

    If you get DW to polish it every once in a while, it won't rust. Yeah, mine is rusty too!
