Subject:      O ring making kit

Hi all

Perusing through a Reid Tool catalog 1-800-253-0421 or www.reidtool.com.
They have a kit to make o-rings, here is their description:

"Eliminates the need for extensive o-ring inventories. Contains everything
to make fast, on the spot o-rings of any size. . . . Contains cord, cord
cutter, adhesive, and splicing fixture. . ." Part number is PER-80851.

You can buy extra cord material in various sizes, the cost of the kit is
$45.72. I thought this could come in pretty handy for an old vanagon (not to
be confused with an old vanagon owner).

They also sell a variety of metric bolt, nut, washer kits which have come in
quite handy in my TDD conversion endeavors, and some pretty cool looking UL
approved rubber "wrap and seal", part number SW-2. "Forms a strong rubber
coating in minutes with no adhesive. . . Max holding pressure 100 psi." All
this along with a bunch of industrial type hardware.

Cheers
