Too many steps for me. Its not like I need more clamps and if I find that I do, it will most likely be a specific type I would be getting.

Yeah, I do Instagram primarily for band promo, but I hate it. I'll probably still play along with Bessey's game, but I'm in about the same boat as Bill...I'm pretty well set on clamps and utility knives.

The odds are better than they were on Facebook. Lots of people put off by Instagram.

If a company makes it hard for me to do business with them I generally don't do business with them.

Hadn't really thought of it that way. More of their demographic (us old farts) uses Facebook than Instagram. As of right now, only 29 people have reposted as the instructions say to do, so only 29 people are actually entered in the drawing fo the K Body JRs. 168 have liked the post and 74 shared it, but those actions alone doesn't get you entered.

theres been 3 deaths over the past several years of men who were woodworkers and my wife is friendly with their wives, 2 of them offered me alot of stuff just to clean it out of the garage or basement, alot of clamps.
lots and lots of clamps. alot of smaller clamps, and I graciouisly declined only becasue Ive gotten to the point that I actually think I dont need any more clamps. I listened to the mantra one can never have enough clamps and when I needed or thought I needed I purchased.
what on earth am Im going to do with those 7 and 6 foot long jet clamps?used them alot when I built cabinet or floor units, beds, tables, but never since then. Im not building anything that large anymore. I havent touched one of my bar clamps in years, and I have over a dozen of them in every size, more like 18 of them.
Im downsizing these days, been selling off alot of stuff. sold off my collection of old hand planes saturday buyer picked up.
sold my clifton 4 plane 2 weeks ago.
sold off 2 routers I never use
I might sell my drum sander, havent taken it out of the shed in about a year, maybe once, but before that, not for years.
I did empty my neighbors garage of anything I thought had value when the older lady died and her son from omaha told me to please help myself to anything his father had in garage. I just sold a c clamp that must have weighed 25 lbs, IM guessing for welding. seems there is a buyer for everything.
now Im moving on to household stuff we havent touched in 40 years, mainly my mothers estate, like china, artwork, and other assorted nicknaks.
