My latest tool order from Avery showed up.
Edge Roller tool, #28, #30, and #40 cobalt drill bits, #10 spring back dimple dies, and 101 clecoes. Why 101 clecoes? Because my total with 100 was $99.60, and they cost $0.40. I wanted to get to $100. Why? BECAUSE AVERY HAS FREE SHIPPING OVER $100.
Oh wait. No they don’t. That’s the Yard Store.
So I go to set the bag of clecos (and the one separate extra cleco that they had to throw in to get to 101) next to the other stuff, and it didn’t look good for the picture. So I grab the bag to flip it over, and guess what? The top wasn’t sealed, so 100 (+1) clecoes fall out onto the table (and my foot, and the floor) and scatter everywhere (roll under the workbenches, etc.)
[sigh]
It was like 52 card pickup, except with clecoes, and there were 101 of them.
But, I got over it, because these are nice new shiny clecoes. If you zoom in, you may be able to see what I paid, for reference.
After closer inspection, I pulled out the #10 dimple dies and set them next to the #40 dies, for scale.
#10 dies require a #12 drill bit (it's for a #10 screw). #40 dimple dies require a #40 drill bit.
The new clecoes almost fill my patent pending (not) cleco bin.
Shiny!
You can see the stratification of old (bottom) and new (top) clecoes.
Finally, the edge roller tool.
Nothing really special here, this should make some of my lap joints look a little cleaner.
