Good score!
Didn’t work out, unfortunately. I was tied up until close to four loading a van with ~3000 lbs of books (my reason for being up there in the first place), and had zero cell reception to get a hold of the seller. Gone by the time I was back in cell range. :/
I’m not worked up about it, though. While I’m sure I would have used the boring head eventually, it was speculative. By quick estimate, I’ve spent ~ $15k on my home shop this year. Maybe time to set aside a little money for boring but unexpected things, like, I dunno, dental work. (my teeth are fine, to my knowledge. I’ve agreed to loan a friend $5k for her kid’s teeth, though, so…)

But, but our arsh__e leader has given everyone dental care.
…if they don’t have insurance. I’ll be eligible in 2025, as I don’t, but her ex has minimal coverage (I think it covers up to $3000) through his work. They have to pay up front, though, and wait for reimbursement, so I’m fronting her.But, but our arsh__e leader has given everyone dental care.

Most dentist here won't touch it as they would lose money on every filling
