Hey Francis, The next time EdT. is over your way, just have him remove your finial, post a pic of it, and then I can quit bugging Randy T. to start a resto on of some of his...
If I can ever finish the restoration, it's going to look more like it used to than it ever did.

Apparently and as usual, I thought wrong - again. Therefore, please let me ask my question differently. Does anyone here know of anyone who has successfully removed a Ruleta finial? If so and if you could tell me who that person is, then perhaps I can get my question answered by talking to that person and I wouldn't need to see a picture. Thanks!

I have a box that contains not only a naked acorn Ruleta finial but a couple of spare visors, latch eye bolts, wingnuts and some other Ruleta bits. :thumbsup:
Would it upset you terribly to hear that I have misplaced aforementioned box? :shock: :blush:

I have mounted two separate search and rescue missions for it with negative results. :rob:

I will try again tomorrow! :beg:

Perhaps you should look in the bottom of your pool that you keep covered to keep the wayward ducks out. I have always strongly suspected that you hoard as much or more than Randy T. does. I can only hope you 2 give Francis the occasional break on parts. :Wink2: That said, it did take me looking through all my AGA lenses to find the Ruleta lens that I thought I had. :lol:

:lol: *I* have never had to build an outbuilding to stash my stuff in. Though I wish I had as much good stuff to stash as Randy... :yes:

That's right. Keep creating this mythology around me about having warehouses of super rare signal parts. I'll have to change my name and move to another country to dodge phone calls. :rant:

To hear EdT. tell it, you've been in the witness protection program for years now and are about due for yet another new identity for exactly that reason. I guess crime does pay when you're in the signal racket and as for a case in point, why don't you share pics of your latest and greatest conquest, the one that made me :drool: just yesterday. A very special CONGRATS is due on that one Randy T. - or whatever your name really is :clapping:

Marks pic looks like that would look good in a garden of some sort or in a garden setting :P
