Re: [ATM] ATM Pinning - File Card???

   I have been a machinist for 20+ years and because a lot of that stuff 
gets supplied around the shop, I never had to actually buy a file card 
:-) Same goes for files. But I had to buy a lot of these supplies for 
shops I worked at, so I know where to buy the stuff, and home depot 
isn't on my list :-) Most towns or cities should have an industrial 
supplier store that would carry items like files and file cards.  If not 
there are a host of online sources.

I was there along with several other woodworkers (I assume) and the demo guy kept getting "rabbets" and "dados" confused.  After a few corrections, half the crowd left....he obviously had never used the tools......or even taken a high school woodshop class!!!
