    Love it, Dave .. you put something up and then make the first guess at it! :D

    Did you look at my modern-day version of your antique pen/pencil?

    In one DAG!!! :cool:
    The darn thing was still in the wall when I was installing a new wire and it was "loaded",so to speak,and when I exposed it the wire whipped out and cut me across the face....It was lucky to still be intact after I gave it a dressing down with a lump hammer :mad: ......... :D
    If you visit the Castle(house really) you will see the new wrought iron pull handle and cable to the right of the main door. ;)
