WOW, and that is one that I am short on.  This is a great magazine and often has plans that are suitable for SASS use.  I love it when they get the full coverage article on a single stamping tool.  There isnt a lot thats left to the imagination.

Howdy Cowboy
Very nice job on the wallet.
I've only had my shop for the last 10 years, for the 15 before that I worked out of a bedroom at home. You will be surprised what you can do in a little space.
