Forum Fundraiser ! Shooboy Midnite-Pro/Stealth Gunsmithing Hammer to high bidder !
Hi All, Here's your chance to own a fine Shooboy Midnite-Pro/Stealth Model Gunsmithing Hammer, and help your S&W Forum ! This Hammer will go to the highest bidder and the entire amount will go to the Forum as a donation. You can send the cash to me which I will then forward to Lee through Paypal or whatever, and I will send you the finest Hammer you can buy for working on your firearms. Your Midnite-Pro will come complete with all 5 tips as shown. These sell for $40 shipped, so hopefully we can do a little better than that and help things out a bit for Lee. Let's see how high we can get this and I'll end it on Sunday night. Thanks and good luck, thanks for making this a great place to hang-out at and be a part of !!!! Randy, aka Shoo

I think I'll add a custom brass endcap inset with a handgun caliber casing as shown in this example. You'll also get the standard black Delrin endcap..... Shoo

A hand made anything is a rarity. I think it has a better chance of being worth something on the "Antiques Roadshow" some day so I'll go $ 75.

I'm kinda new to the forum and haven't done any real gunsmithing, but I'm a sucker for well made tools. Growing up on the family farm in N TX I watched my dear pappy use whatever worn out tools were on hand, which usually resulted in busted knuckles. Consequently when I need a tool for a job I try to find the best tools available and get it. At least my son will inherit some great stuff.
I'll bid $85.

Let's see, I've still got $110 in my checkin' account after SWAMBO filled the larder on Senior Citizens discount day, Social Security check comes in next week and there's 111 pennies in the Mason jar I've been saving change in so I can refill said jar with more corn squeezins, so lets up it to $111.11.

Shhh!!! I'm tryin' to use some of Smith Crazy's subliminal embedding to gain sympathy for an old coot livin' on a fixed income so my bid will win.
The Mason jar I put change in isn't the only Mason jar I brought back from Johnson County the last time I visited my kinfolks in Sparta.

Wow!!! Is an understatement.
Showed pic to SWMBO and she instantly laid claimed on the MiniMag Lite (Excluding the various shades of green found on dollar$ - Purple is her favorite color)
Guess I'll have to give my guns more TLC before taking their pictures so they won't feel embarrassed sharing the frame with the elegance of Shoorods.
The Mason jar that had 111 pennies in it also had some nickles, dimes and quarters, so I'm gonna have to empty another one for all the ShooHammer accessories, but I don't mind.
BTW - The mention of a ShooBox brought back fond memories of my first real job when I turned 16, ShooSalesman, but I didn't have Al Bundy's flair for it, so I joined the AF to escape the draft four years latter and got my draft notice while in basic.
Kidding aside, far more than expected. Thank you Shoo,
John
