    OPE Engines in Salem OR still in business? Can't get a hold of them

    Huot drill index - what is it

    In any case, Huot drill and tap indices and storage dispensers are among the best. So if the price was right, then you still got something worth keeping.

    Don’s Den of Dandy Delights

    Don, I think I know a travel agent who would be willing to arrange and manage round trip tours of your museum. Can you accommodate, say 250 tool junkies for 50% of the gross tour package pricing?
