I love the binoculars. Very snappy!

Mmmm mechanical stuff!

Haha! Thanks.

I was going to use one of the hemmers (that long row of identical bits and pieces in the middle) for a sewing-project I'm trying to do. But the fabric was too thick. Had to do it the old-fashioned way.

no DNO they were very cheap on a stall in a collectors market, they were very grubby externally too.

Today's yard sale find: 1945 unit history of the 557th Bombardment Squadron (M) which operated B-26 Marauders as part of the Ninth Air Force. It belonged to a veteran who had also served in the RAF during the war. There was also a photograph of a 1995 reunion that he attended.
