Re: 2025 POS Exchange
Just a comment on the POS exchange, after participating a time or two, I decided to research the member whose name was drawn for me and if possible include something that might be applicable to their personal likes. Not always possible but sometimes it may have been appreciated.

Re: 2025 POS Exchange
fantastic idea Phil, so you searched on the members prior posts to better understand what turns them on and have a rose amongst the poo to soften the blow, bravo!treefarmer wrote: ↑Fri Mar 21, 2025 7:02 pm Just a comment on the POS exchange, after participating a time or two, I decided to research the member whose name was drawn for me and if possible include something that might be applicable to their personal likes.

Re: 2025 POS Exchange
Two GREAT minds, Phil. I've done the same thing the past two POS's...including this one. It really adds a 'personal' touch to the entire POS exchange...IMHO.treefarmer wrote: ↑Fri Mar 21, 2025 7:02 pm Just a comment on the POS exchange, after participating a time or two, I decided to research the member whose name was drawn for me and if possible include something that might be applicable to their personal likes.

Re: 2025 POS Exchange
Poor David (Edge213). It has been 4 years since I last "decorated" his mailbox with poo, but here we go again, package inbound.
The Postal clerk was such a nice friendly lady, and I felt terrible for handing her the box.
The paramedics revived her with smelling salts and said that she would be fine - it was just shock.

Re: 2025 POS Exchange
Ken98k,
Check your PM...your gassy waste box is enroute. USPS tried to deny sending it due to the fumes emanating from within, but I told them it was a special delivery to a person who has military grade gas masks and full hazmat suits. They then reluctantly accepted the box after sealing it with extra military grade anti-fuming plastic.

Re: 2025 POS Exchange
I strived mightily to cram every last scrap of POS I could find into that flat rate box. I had to get 1967redrider to stand on the box to keep it closed while I wrapped it with yards of packing tape wound around numerous times. (Thanks John!) Then I ran into trouble with the mailman. He wanted to know what that smell was and he was worried that the whole rig was going to explode in the delivery truck before it got to the other end. Just hoping it doesn't blow up in mid-journey.

Jody744.....
One man's trash is another man's treasure. In this case one man's trash is just that. But for me at least now it's another man's trash. Maybe someday we can be friends again or not....if there is any celluloid out gassing on the way it might be an improvement. Oh well........

Just got my package from Corn Creek Cutlery in the mail today.
And this isn't all of them. I was just informed this is part one, with another package coming in a couple of days.

Wow, that is a nice one. Great stuff bladebuddy, thanks.

I'm wondering, was that one of Robert Palantonio's "RAP Cutler" customs? Seem to recall he embellished a lot of Old Cutler models.
