    Thank you so much, Hans! Doing much better than I was recently. At 75 they get concerned when they think you’re slurring your words. My grandson noticed during a standard transmission lesson and drove me to the emergency room. I ended up spending 6 weeks back in the the local rehab facility. Steve put me on to an Etsy vendor in the Ukraine who made a similar stand, although I don’t believe it has the clever magnet closure you devised. I don’t expect to receive that stand anytime soon, if at all, given the situation in the Ukraine now, and that’s fine. I would be much more appreciative and interested in your design, if you could find time to make one for me. Let me know your thoughts. I’m in no rush!

    Thanks, Steve, but whether I receive it or not is an open question as we both recognize. As a vet myself, I understand firsthand the horrors the innocent folk of the Ukraine are being put through by Russia. There’s nothing worse than war in human experience as far as I’m concerned!

    . As I’m sure you’re aware, Scott, Andrey’s Etsy shop is still closed. I’m praying for him every day! He’s a great guy who has always put his customers first! Yurii Kravchenko of Kyiv, has just reopened his business.

    Filly 14 Sub Cero sporting an edge from the new kiita, cream was Atkinson’s For Gentlemen lavender, and a splash of SMN lavande AS finished up a perfect Saturday shave.

    Soviet YACHTA 19/32” but I call her Natasha ❤️ I’d add pictures but it looks like it’s a pain to add pictures.

    Copy and paste, from you previous post at least. You're young, you should have this electronics stuff figured out.

    As long as it’s less than 1 MB there’s never a problem.

    That is nice to hear that you doing better. Of course could I make a stand for you. It will take some time, building a Pool right now beside the house and it is “priority” for my wife. The plan is to have it ready until our Midsummer festival 24th of June. I come back to you when I have made the stand

    Thank you, Hans! I’m in no rush, and greatly appreciate your willingness to do this for me! Is it an above ground or an in-ground pool? Sounds like an above ground! An in-ground is really too much for one person. Enjoy your shaves!
