planter
it does need something inserted into the inside ring, I was thinking lots of succulents in a nice pot. I am going to the habitat for humanity today so I will look for a THICK piece of glass as a temporary solution.
As for the grater - I am going to put it up on a certain site that sounds like ShePay with an ENORMOUS price on it (to discourage). But I will allow offers. If one of my fine fellow DA'rs wants it bid something VERY MODEST and I will send it your way (just let me know it's you).
I am closing up my shop - time to relax more, read more DA

I've
never cared for the flavor/scent of any nutmeg, but what a handsome grinder. The perfect gift for the home chef.
Always,
Aunt Mark

well
nutmeg always makes me think of pumpkin pie and pumpkin pie always makes me think of thanksgiving and I LOVE thanksgiving (and pumpkin pie, as it so happens)
Well, the mill is listed for $500 to dissuade the simply curious. Let me know you are a DA'r and it's yours.
I like it, someone here will love it. Simple
Or if ebay gives you the willies you can contact me @ iam_waffle at yahoo.com and we can work it out.

Very pleased with my new doormat, made from six carpet tiles from the dollar store!

Should I worry???
I paid .99 cents for my teak grinder. The first time I listed it I asked something like 39$ because I just thought it was magnificent! No takers...I could not seem to justify yet another nutmeg grinder in the house. I sold it to someone in the Hamptons for $15. Me thinks they will retail it. Now I wish I had it still had it.
p.s. Spanky, if you are seeing this, I went ahead and bought the Porter-Cable US58 but I'm having trouble finding 1/4" staples. I have some Calligaris chairs that have 1/4" ply that I want to recover and I'm having no luck here locally. Really looking forward to using it.

Hazelnut-
Doesn't it take 3/8" crown staples? Do you mean 1/4" legs?
I get mine from an upholstery supply house. You can get them online. They're cheap--box of 10,000 for under $6.
I use mostly 3/8" legs, sometimes 1/2", and, rarely, 1/4".
edited to add: gotcha, the part about stapling into 1/4" ply went over my head. And no, you won't find these in a hardware store, you have to go to an upholstery supplier. Amazon has them but the ones I saw cost three times as much for some reason.

Hi Grendle darling.
I like the new mat, but it seems to be a tad too large to be a door mat. Consider laying it the other direction, and placing it more toward the center of the porch floor....more of a porch rug. I like your new home.
Best,
Aunt Mark

I looked at the site for the 1/4" and didn't see anything stating compatibility for the PorterCable us58. I called them and asked and was told "we don't guarantee this will fit your Porter Cable"......? Am I correct believing anything that works with Senco C should be o.k. with the Porter Cable?? I want to avoid Amazon prices. I do appreciate your help...

Hazelnut-
Yes, Senco type C will work. That's what Porter Cable recommends with this staple gun.
