Post by: OilyRascal on March 05, 2012, 08:36:22 AM: Please sign me up. It would be my first true monkey wrench. I've been hearing a pipe wrench called a monkey wrench all my life....ahhhh, to know the real difference.

Just have a check on here first to find out what that might cost you

When I buy blow torches from the US I try to go with a Flat Rate Box, if you can fit your wrench into a box at reasonable cost to Australia, then please add me to the list.

The clothes cost much less than the $36 shipping. Our lowest cost choices were $16 flat rate envelope up to legal, $16 small flat rate box, $45 medium flat rate, or $36 paying by weight.

Post by: 1930 on March 06, 2012, 01:37:17 PM: You are all in, if it happens that I pull someone out of the box that is overseas and I don't have the money ( which would be the case this week at least ) than I would have to wait and ship until I did have the money and let the receiver know that.

I am not ashamed to admit that I do not have alot of money and alot of things that I do have were bought on a shoestring and a prayer. Life is too short to not be grateful for what we do have and feel less of men for what we don't have.

On a side note, I collect anything and everything that has to do with Dodge Brothers automobiles and related paraphernalia whether it be literature or what not. When I really need something that I cant find here I reach out to all the auto enthusiasts overseas, in my experience you would not find a more giving group of people.

We here are too selfish and covet personal items unlike you chaps overseas that cherish friendship and the warm feeling of helping someone out.

Post by: john k on March 07, 2012, 09:33:49 PM: I would jump in but, went a little crazy a few years back, and have two each of most sizes from four inches to 30 inches, don't want to make the monkey wrench drawer too crowded. So, am not in this time.
