Helen, this is the commonly used name for this tool in this particular work/craft. I made these tools, using manufactured tools to copy from. They are as close to the originals as I could make them without CNC machines.
Roger, nope.

I know Helen.
Gotta go off for a while. They just sounded the alarms. We're under a tornado warning. If I don't come back on, watch for a box of rocks headed east in a funnel cloud. Gotta get the garage door closed, and the dog and me down to the basement.

LOL. This may get interesting. They're reporting tennis ball size hail just south west of us. It's dead still outside, and big time rotation in the clouds. Trying to get 2 jugs of coffee made before this beast hits. Gonna take a bag of dog food and a carton of cigarettes to the basement. Also my mag lite and spare batteries. I'll get pics of the beast if I can.

Plenty of time. It's still about 10 minutes west of us. If you happen to see those objects in the pics come flying by, DUCK !! they're razor sharp on the pointy ends.

Heh heh heh, come out, come out wherever you are. Wish I could put sound with pics. Sounds like a war zone out there.   The beast is hiding in there somewhere. |

I don't see golfball sized hail...
Years ago, we had a hailstorm like that in JUNE, and they literally were golfball sized!!! They put holes in my car. We had State Farm, so State Farm gives me $3500 to fix 6 invisible dings in my trunk and hood... and $1500 to fix the loss of most of the shingle rocks on a 6 month old $35,000 roof....
Hope the golfballs don't come your way... that can get really expensive.

Good luck with the tornado. You should take the whatchamacallits with you so they don't fly around and impale someone. Or are they doohickies?

Yup Roger.Corn to the west and south west, and soy beans to the south.
They're thingamajigs.
First round of wind and heavy rain just hit us. So far no hail. Oh boy, this thing is all over Eastern S.D. They're reporting a tornado on the ground near Redfield, about an hour south of us. Must be that damned global warming doing it.

Whew !! We've been downgraded to severe thunder storm status. Dodged the bullet this time. Sorry guys and gals. No tornado pics this time, but the season is still young.
And so, let the game re-begin.
Now what am I gonna do with the 2 jugs of coffee I took to the basement ?
