I had two dozen of the classic ODSS adjustable wrenches made up in preparation for the Homecoming.
The're made in the USA, black oxide, 6", and very handy to have.

Cost $15 cash.

First come first serve, must be present to purchase.
As an incentive for you to join us at an official ODSS event I will not ship them. Any that remian after this weekend will be available at the next ODSS gathering.

Put me down for one Grigg.
I'll keep it in by back pocket all weekend and at the reunion.

Thanks for doing a good deed.

Thanks Don.
No problem making them up, glad I thought of it in time to get them ordered and engraved.

However, I'm trying to keep this whole process simple for me and low key.
No orders, no shipping, no list of names and what to engrave on the wrenches... KISS.

By keeping it simple and engraving them all the same the per wrench cost is the cheapest yet.

Sounds like you'll be there before I even get there, so good chance you can be first in line smile

Thanks,
Grigg

I would like that a few be held over for the LDT (Long Distance Team)
I'll buck up and secure them Thursday morning for the LDT.
Team members are:
Tim, (Australia)
Leo, (Canada)
And myself, Don, (Midwest)

If there are any other attendees that deserve to be part of this elite team, please post up and the members will review your qual's.

There ought to be plenty, and a lot of the regular ODSS members already have wrenches.

This was just a heads up to bring a few extra $ if you want a wrench, not intending to be an order form or list.

Well, that was nice of you to do that again Grigg. I know someday we'll get around to whatever that other discussion item was about. That was a good ODSS item, too. I still have the 20 emails that went back and forth. Come summer maybe.
