I haven't heard about him in many years. I know he was busy raising kids, and I believe building a house at one time. I was reading a post about trap anchors and got to wondering about him. He used to post a picture of a pile of drivers when he was leaving for a convention, if you guessed the correct number of drivers in the pile there was a prize. Hope he is still doing well.

I bought 100's of 1 1/2 and 2 inch washers and never run out of them. Just make sure you use the driver , pull up and twist and pound down again to set it flat.

I would buy 1.5” fender washers by the 1000 and 30D nails, NEVER had a “stake-pumping” coyote ever budge one!! It’s all about square inches of surface area displacement! Making pogos is a good shop project in March! LOL "A few want to know WHY, the majority appear to be satisfied just knowing HOW!" Youtube Channel- SeldomFales
