Snap, I've lost 12" steel rule which I use to get nice straight edges when I trim the gummed paper tape to size, so I've just bought two more, one 12" and one 6".
Now I've lost my photographic magnifier, so I ordered three different ones, which arrived today and as I suspected the quoted specification for each of them counts for nothing, but fortunately one of them is upto the job.
I can never figure out where all these lost things go to!

Yes, and isn't it strange that these things turn up when you are looking for something else that has gone awol. I misplaced my faithful 16' tape couple of weeks since. After a few days I started to miss it and bought another one. No sooner did that when the old one turned up.
I have had old mouldings that have been moving from pillar to post for years. Soon as a job turns up that I can use them for, they disappear.
That's why I resist the temptation to tidy up my workshop too often.
