@deux jambes, disassemble and soak those bells in an oxalic acid solution, rins thoroughly, then oil up the spinning innards. Should ring like a champ.

@crandress AND THE BOX IS ON THE MOVE AGAIN!!! Shipped this morning. Hopefully to reach it’s next recipient by this Friday.

I have to agree with Gugie. If in you mind it really should go, remove it. If there is a question in your mind, keep it in as the next guy might slant the other way. Just be thoughtful and it will all work out.

The B.o'crap has landed
So mail was delivered at 12:18pm. Knowing that our Post office is closed Saturday, I had to hustle.
The B.O.C. departed at 4:25... not a bad turn around(I think).
I will post pics soon.
@Pompiere pm with tracking on the way.

Modest take. @Reco Very Glad you forewarned me not to put the cat in the box after all. And I'm also glad to see a few familiar pieces of crap laid out, four to be exact, that have found a new home!

My favorite item (so far) is the new wallet. It's a perfect fit. There were other items, but I tried not to be greedy.

I think in the last round, or maybe one before that, one of our very rare Canadian players flipped it in about 1/2 hour. Involved a border crossing and a proxy address in the US, but he did it.

If everyone agreed about everything, the world would be a pretty boring place. Either that, or we'd all be characters in The Lego Movie.

I did have to do some international travel to grab the box and deposit my own crap. One of my regrets before moving east is not to have done the tour de Washington and Portland circuit and met up with some of the members there. Maybe on a vacation one day.

BOC landed today. I'm working 12 hour days 'til Thursday, so it should go back out Friday.
The obligatory teaser shot.

The first job of the Crapmaster is finding a replacement...

The box landed today. I took a quick run at it this evening. Here's my haul:
I also took out the rod brake setup I added the last time the box visited me. I'll donate it to the local bike co-op. Unfortunately, I didn't have my high-powered bin packing algorithm ready to go this evening:
I'll make another run at packing up the box tomorrow.
