Kurt, The blue motor in your shop with the yellow sanding pad, where would one buy one of these and could it be used as a sander/buffer? Also how much would one of these costs?

Alan, Thanks for the comments; I so visualized your pain. I am lucky in that I have a relative with a garage near my home, but do not want to take advantage of the situation, by taking over their garage.

Patrick,

I have quit a large collection of Pipes and Tobaccos magazines.
Send me a list of what you need and I will go through my collection to see if I have what you need. If you have any pipe related magazines or books let me know as I would be willing to trade.
