Subject: Extra "push-push"
Hey guys,
I meant to send this mail a week or so ago and forgot. At the
last Swapfest, I happened upon a guy who was selling one of
those solvent-drawing apparatuses we call a "push-push" for
fairly cheap, and since I've never really come across anywhere
else with them, I figured it might not be a bad idea to grab
it for the shop, so I did.
It's in the flammables cabinet, in a gray plastic shopping
bag. I think it's a bit larger than our current one, but was
too dead tired to actually put them side-by-side. Needs a
good cleaning before we use it with the blanket wash - it has
some residue of whatever it was used with before still inside.
Based on what the guy selling it was talking about, it might
have had kerosene and/or been used to clean jewelry in its
past life. I didn't try very hard to figure out what the
residue was, and so didn't feel confident about what to pour
into it to safely clean it out. Perhaps I'll get around to
that at some point.
Anyway, enjoy.
Mitch
