True ...
However, after I commented, I checked to see if she had been on the Board, and discovered yes.
Just let my frustrations out a bit, to all the people who never come back to their own threads!
Even worse, IMHO, when a question or clarification is asked (as in this case),
or as very often, help is generously shared,
and of course ... all the oohing and aaahing that is given!
I've done the same as you with nails to hold things to dry when painting.
Had seen an "official" set up like that when I toured a custom cabinetry place,
and then ran with the idea.
Now if someone could come up with a way to keep paint from running
when I paint my outside doors, while still hung.
