    Won a Leigh Superjig.

    Don't mean to gloat but last October I posted
    http://www.bt3central.com/showthread.php?t=33920
    that Fine Woodworking was going to publish my "Benchlift" idea
    http://www.bt3central.com/showthread.php?t=24318
    in the "Methods of Work" section of the magazine. About a 6 weeks ago they contacted me that they wanted a piture of me and a short bio because the tip had been selected for the tip of the month award and the price was the Leigh Industries Superjig 18 with the Router support Vacuum Attachment accessory.
    So today what arrives? A complimentary copy of the June issue of Fine Woodworking and by courier "The Jig", just in time for my birtday on Saturday. I'm feeling pretty good.
    As I said in an earlier post, send me your copy of the mag. with a self-addressed stamped envelope and I'd be glad to autograph it.

        I never win anything, he said with a slight whine in his voice.

        It's good to hear that your good idea paid off and won for you a great tool.

                    Congrats!

                    That is an elegant idea for the workbench. One day maybe I'll come up with such a clever idea...

                      if you don't gloat about this, when will you ?

                      Congrats, and thanks for thinking this up, for our edification!

                      one day maybe I'll use all the clever ideas I come across on this forum...
