    You know you might have a problem when....

    You know you might have a problem when:

    You look forward to going to the store to buy Non-Stick-Aluminum-Foil.
    or
    You know what NSAF stands for.
    or
    You look forward to going to the store to buy lemishine
    or
    You look forward to the tweaker next door running his lawn mower at three am (the one where he taped a flashlight on in with duct-tape) so that the neighbors won't complain about you running your wet tumble with stainless steel for polishing the cases in the middle of the night.
    or
    You bought a toaster over that will never be used for food.
    or
    You keep trying to make the Harbor Freight Matte Black work with either the dry tumble method or the piglet wet method.
    or
    You know what the dry tumble method is.
    or
    You know what the piglet method is.

    LOL. A couple days ago I was thinking about asking someone to make a sticky that would have a list of all the powder coating related acronyms. It some how doesn't sound so stupid to me now.

    Maybe there could be a glossary too with the definitions of some of these strange materials like "mechanics cloth" which is more like wire mesh or fencing than cloth. I still don't know what parchment paper is or what it's "real" purpose is or where to buy it.

    I just bought a bigger toaster oven Friday night..... I can get bigger sheets of Kydex in this one and of course, more boolits!

    Got excited over a rather heavy box in the mail Saturday, I got another 5lb bag of STM media!

    Bought a fresh bottle of Wash & Wax today!

    Tomorrow I should have my end cap, reducer, and rubber cap for my new 8" PVC tumbler drum! Oh yeah, gonna be some shiny brass around here!

    How about when you are seriously looking at buying a new kitchen range to re-purpose the old oven........
    Sould this be considered a problem?

    Well it's not the first time I've had a good idea that already existed.

    Mechanics Cloth and Parchment paper is not there though.
