Metric set-up blocks available from Woodpecker for a limited time

Make your own and stop whining or wining if you're working at a vineyard today. And I know what you're thinking, so it's good you can't say it on here!  [tongue]

You're missing the point of owning them. They work well, they look good and they'd be great tools to show to your friends which is a big part of woodworking. It's the same as having a great looking woman on your arm as you're strolling around. All the same adjectives would apply.  8)

That's the only reason I ordered them. Chicks dig setup blocks.  [big grin]

Guess I'm going to be chickless then. I only found out about the setup blocks a few weeks ago, long past buying a set of the one time production schedule.  :'(

Does Woodpecker ever run previously ended productions more than once? Anybody out there married now and can't chase women as he used to and want to sell their setup blocks?  ;)
Correction: Anybody out there who has used his setup blocks to get his woman and now doesn't need them anymore?  [laughing]
 
Actually, nobody has received them so no Metric setup blockz, no European chickz ('merican ones wouldn't go for Metric, though they prefer their weight in kilos :)
 
Woodpeckers has rerun items with slight changes when there is enough demand. You can still call up to be put on a "waiting list" for the current run if something becomes available.

My setup blocks were shipped today, about time.
 
Got my metric set today.  The case they came in is ridonkulous.. As in very nice.  Thought for a sec it was a mini Pelican case!

The case is great, but I was actually a little disappointed in the size - TOO BIG!  Considering what is in the case, it's really overkill and takes up a lot of space for some setup blocks.  I'm still glad I got the case as almost of my old brass setup blocks grew legs and walked off on me.

I didn'tt get any case at all.  ???

On the other hand I really like the size (they are longer than my Veritas Imperial set and I find the extra length to be a great help).

Frank, the case was an optional item for an additional cost.  I decided to pass on the case and I'm glad I did.  I like the little cardboard box and foam insert the set came with. 

Also, I did some measuring with my digital calipers and the block are remarkably accurate.  Every block was .01-.02mm bigger. [thumbs up] 
 
Thanks for cluing me in Brice.  I missed that option to buy a box so it seems that I too will be happy with the cardboard box and foam inerts.
