    No..
    Well
    As Far as a collection to display.. NO..
    My body has been changing severely the past few years and how I bowled *0 years ago ain’t happening.
    So different cover stocks and materials have different characteristics.
    I’m trying to find my “happy ball”.
    Cover design also has a factor.
    I can have 2 sets of the same cover and I’ll go after the most unusual.
    I’ll get rid of the other.
    So I’ll end up with a small collection of
    My first set of balls from 50 years ago.
    A 2.7 set hard rubber
    A 2.6 set plastic (which in using now)
    A 2.6 set hard rubber (which are these Comets)
    A 2.5 set (to be determined) Had a 2.4 set but wouldn’t carry pins.

    My wife uses 2.5’s and uses her original from same time as mine.
    We are currently looking for another set of 2.5’s for her.

    So you be the judge.. ROFLMAO.

    As a case in point.
    I have reconditioned over 160 balls since I started a little over. A year ago.

    Reminds me of some stuff I had shipped last year. I think because they wrapped tape around it that said “FRAGILE” they purposely threw it around

    I've looked at the grills awhile back... I can buy a brand new one but they're kinda pricey around $200

    I worked with a fellow, his signature line was "If you can kill it with an automobile I can cook it".

    Man alive could he cook. :bowdown:

    He would say "...here, try this" and I didn’t even bother to ask what it was. :hungry:

    I drew the entire campus from scratch in AutoCAD after I started here because the one my predecessor was using wasn't to scale. What is the point in having it drawn at all if it isn't scaled?!?

    A year or so after I'd drawn it we sent the CAD plan to a civil engineering for a GIS job. They said they imported it and only had to make a few minor corrections and asked where I got it from. I told them they didn't want to know. :laugh:

    Point being Google Earth would have taken me longer.
