Just the block. #8 rod let go and took a lot of the block with it; Good start for a table.

For anybody attending the Rendezvous later this month this is a way to get it home for free, too.

Interested. How long can you wait for me to get it or have someone pick it up?

I'll need to move it to my storage unit - so, I can wait.

Ok, I'm going to ask a family member if they can pick it up within the next couple of weeks. If they can't, my next time through there will be in February. I would love it, but completely understand if you unload it before I can get it. Don't hold it for me, but you can count on me getting it in the long run.

The family member I spoke to doesn't get closer than 2.5 hours to Atlanta, so that's not going to work. So, February is the soonest that I can come through there and pick it up. Like I said, don't hold it for me if a better option for you comes along, but if you still have it in February, I'll take it.

Thanks for a quick reply. I'd be interested in a broken squirter block to see exactly how they did it and if the squirter springs are different from those 944 squirters that are still available.

RSMartin wants it and he is local. I guess it's his.
