proof is in, waiting for the die

sniper · February 19, 2010, 12:00:04 PM

got the first of the dial plates in today. now i am just waiting for the trimming die and then to purchase a hole punch. they should be ready about the middle of March.

they will be trimmed to the circle inscribed and a 25/64" hole will be punched centered on the "x".

let me know what you all think. <<<<<<<<<<<(living in Texas = speak like a Texan!!!)

i cropped the pic so no remarks about my nails, lol.

YOU ALL!?

In Texas it's YA'LL (emphasis on the short A sound) or (pronounced YAWL) The you all thing is more of an south eastern/old south thing - think South Carolina and such.

Nice dial plates BTW

i'm a gonna have nightmares of my ex g/f calling me from London and trying to sound like a grit! she talks Welsh to me all the time and i can't imagine it with a southern American twist!

the die is in. next week i go and buy a cheap Chinese arbor press and try to order a Whitney-Roper hand press punch and die. it will happen!

i think i should make this my moniker.
