Hello, Welcome to RTH!! I wanted to add to your post if you don't mind. A few years ago when I started this lapidary adventure I bought a Very Vintage Highland Park 1960's Combo Unit. After scowering the internet for hours an even calling the company, no-one seemed to know anything about this unit. THEN... I found cigarboxrock somewhere. After a few emails and a phone call or two, you had me pointed in the right direction an I was able to not only use this great 1st machine but to upgrade it. If I didn't tell you then I want to tell you now, THANK YOU SO VERY VERY MUCH. If I wasn't able to get that machine working and understand it, I wouldn't be where I am today. No... making millions wasn't my objective. My only real objective was to enjoy this expensive hobby to its fullest and create beautiful art. YOU helped me do that. Since that machine, I have bought so much more. These company's should add you to there Christmas Card List (Diamond Pacific, William Holland, Ebay, Sean at the Rock Shed, Lortone, Rio Grande, and probably a few more I can't remember. hahaha)!!!!

rocknrob: There was a shop in Portland, don't know if it's still there called Kenny and Zukes who made the absolute best pastrami sandwiches I have ever had. The problem is every restaurant thinks their sandwich is worth $20 now and seldom makes the grade. Nov 12, 2024 9:53:31 GMT -5

rocknrob: So, to end my thread on sandwiches. If you find your sandwich worthy of that price by all means keep going to that restaurant (chewie)
