Lead ladle for the LIU from Doug - No melting pot yet for it.

Here's everything you need.

Found my spare pot! Not sure Dave knows though, he never responds to me.

That looks nice. Sorry, I have been ill, and also had computer problems.... Not much money in the acquisitions pot right now, but it looks great!

Yeah I stalked you and read about the cataracts, sorry to hear that.  I was just interested in seeing what you have as far as tools. I've got a lot of Bell System tools. I don't sell anything but I do like horse trading. I'd love to see what you've got. I've already posted a bunch of pictures of mine, but still not all of them. Check them out.

I have far too many to post photos of. I have  hundreds. The line type tools are in the LIU - and I have multiple cases of tools in the Museum itself. The most of what I have in duplicates would be tools for Strowger switches - mostly small hand tools.

Might be a dumb question, but what is LIU?

Nice to see your posts, Dave.  I was just thinking about you the other day.

[DavePEI]

Yes, I am slowly getting back into action. Following my cataract surgery in both eyes last fall which brought back my vision, and finally replacing my old computer, which was pretty well unusable, I am trying to get back to normal. I don't know how much I will be adding to the collection - no money, but back into the game, at least!
Now, if only I could get my mobility back, I would be truly happy! The last three years have been bad, but things seem to be improving now.

That's great Dave! Good to hear you are improving and great you are back!
