[TheForge] Re: Odd size stock

[Patty Draper/Bill Robertson]

Someone said that Tom Latane or Peter Ross would never find themselves 
looking for this size stock.  That's because they are too smart to design a 
project that would require it.  I thought I was being smart by drawing my 
design out small then taking it down to an architectural blueprint shop and 
enlarging it.  I "could" forge it out, but now it has become a challenge to 
find it.  (Patty thinks I'm being anal).
