I know I'm not the only one who had to bang the chalk out of the erasers at school.
The tray at the bottom of the wall of blackboards had to be cleaned too though I don't remember doing that.
Maybe the girls did that task and the boys cleaned the erasers.
I like chalkboards. I have a small one about 2'x2' that I made a nice oak frame and tray for and have used it for years.
But 2'x2' isn't large enough to keep all your stuff on and still have room to reinvent the wheel when your friends drop by.
So I had this 44x36" chalk board for years and finally decided I needed it and hung it on the wall this week.
Compared to the little board this mounting is crude as heck but maybe if I find an antique soap dish to screw on the wall near by it will suffice for the chalk/eraser holder.
You can't quite see it in the photo but at the top right of the board is says BUTTER. In smaller writing it says wholesale and retail. It came from a big commercial dairy that was in Mpls years ago.
Ewald Bros Dairy. They had the milk trucks that delivered bottled milk throughout the city.
So anyway, I got it mounted this week and my pal Steve came by tonight - bearing gifts as you can see.
And we had the chance to use the chalkboard for the first time.
I like it. Am glad I put it up.
I wonder if anyone else still uses old chalkboards.
By the way, there is a quiz at the end of this post.
From the pictures Steve scrawled on the blackboard can you guess what we were talking about?
Hint: Your mother had one.

Today's Featured Article - The Nuts and Bolts of Fasteners - Part 2 - by Curtis Von Fange. In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes. In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together. When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and ... [Read Article]
