Roots: Here is something you might be interested in...

When Werner got his stamp kit, he went stamp wacky and was doing up everyones gear. He put my name on this cam... I believe the cam is one that Rob Oravets made and is still in great working shape. All this happened in something like 1984. After playing with it a bit right now I'm tempted to put it on my rack and use it!

I'll pay for the shipping to you, and you make a donation to the Morongo Basin Humane Society... something generous would be nice, but any amount will get you the cam if you want it.

Here is the link to donate:

Confirm your donation here and send me your shipping address if you do the deal....

Russ - that is generous of you and I'd be stoked to get some of your old gear...

Making the donation of your choice sounds just fine. I'll try the email feature and see if it gets through to you.

And I thought the real money was in counterfeit Minoan relics. DOH!

I especially like the tube chock withe "C Pratt" stamped on it. nyuck-nyuck-nyuck

I can turn any piece of gear into "Werner Gear" because I have a full set of lettering stamps. Call me. Let's make a deal. I can do other names too: Bridwell, Kauk, Honnold and Croft.

In a few days, I will have some RURPS with "CHARLIE PORTER" stamped on them.

And as soon as I find an old air-powered drill, I will adorn it with "MAESTRI".

Who wants to buy a broken hemp rope signed "EDWARD WHYMPER - 1865"? It's a 2" hawser from an old boat, but who's to know a yacht from a knot?
