I forgot to bring em back inside my shop building a couple of nights ago, they've been subjected to snow and rain ever since then until 2:30 today when I got this nagging, bad feeling. Sure enough, there they were! This is one time that I'm happy that they're covered pretty much "head to toe" in vinyl and plastic substances, they wiped dry in a jiffy. They pull beater duty anyway, so looks have never been a consideration. I hope they can forgive my carelessness !:redface:

    I think leaving them outside in the rain is enough of a reason to be compelled to karma them off to a better home.:tongue:

    Ben,

    I've got everything I need for any woodworking I want to do, except my old vacuum press set-up for veneering is dead and I'm going to shop for a while before replacing it. I'm in Central Maryland about 45min. West of the Baltimore Beltway.:smile:
