Yep. My message to pass on to everyone else: put a towel or something on the surface you're working on to provide some cushion. My etalon basically fell directly onto the granite counter top on the island in my kitchen. Not smart.

Hello All,

In the vernacular of the good Mr. Townley;

The postie dropped a post today emblazoned with the golden image of the queen, conspicuously marked as ROYAL MAIL.

WOW, I get mail all the time but never Royal Mail! :cheer: Yes it contained my ceramic spacers. Happy-Happy-Joy-Joy! :rockon: :hamster:

And in all seriousness; Thank you Mark. :thanx:

Cheers,

Joe
