Some time ago I arrived at the realization that the pile of Williams' beeswax under my bench was NEVER going to see a melting pot while I owned it. So, I contacted Glenn to see if he'd be interested in swapping my beeswax for some of his lube.
He agreed, and I shipped the fifty-odd pounds off to Idaho.
Yesterday, in spite of all his recent trials and tribulations, I got a BIG box of ready-to-use lube in the mail. Note that we never said "how much" or "how many" in our dealings, and I just asked him to send some lube which reflected a FAIR-TO-HIM value for my wax, leaving a decent margin for profit from his use of the stuff.
I am blown away by the generosity. I think he sent at least twice as much lube as I could reasonably expect, plus some samples of other lube goodies as well.
I could have thanked him privately, but this is a better way to acknowledge his wonderful concept of square-dealing-PLUS. If I ever work my way through the treasure-chest of lube he sent, guess where my next order will come from????
Glenn, many thanks.
