Needed more band aids today, too many projects, not enough healing time between. I was driving through Emporia Ks. and had time so I swung into a store called Blue Stem farm and fleet I think. I've been in all 48 states, been in fleet stores of all names all over the country, but nothing like this store. They had more "stuff" than any other store anywhere. It is bigger than the biggest fleet store, or even walmart I've ever seen. They had what looked like real quality stuff too. Clothing area that was bigger than fleet farm's. Several isles of shoes. More farm supplies than any 2 fleets, with animal and tractor stuff. Isles of plow and cultivator points, one isle just for tractor seats. Enough quality welding supplies to make my heart go pitter patter, I spent 20 minutes lusting over the Lincoln gas powered welder. They had nearly as much in trailer supplies as Red Neck trailer supplies. And don't forget enough trinkets to keep the ladies busy while husband buys a new mower, or vice versa. Sadly, no band aids tho, they may be the only item not for sale in that store.
Not to worry tho, Price Chopper is right next door. Surely they will have band-aids. Well, maybe not, you see I want the cloth type since they are the only kind that stick. Price Chopper does have cloth type band-aids, if you want the kind for your knuckle, or large enough to use as an eye patch.
Not to worry tho, True Value hardware is right next door. Surely THEY will have band-aids. I mean it's common knowledge that home improovements can cause bleeding. But sadly no, no band-aids at True Value.
Alas, all is not lost, the fine folks at True value, after first suggesting Blue Stem, then Price Chopper, suggest Walgreens just down the road. Surely Walgreens will have band-aids. An sure enough, there they are. However, me being the picky sort, they don't have the 1" size I like. They have both smaller and larger in the cloth type. They also have 1" in other types, but no 1" cloth type. Apparently there has been a run on 1" cloth band-aids.
I settled for the 3/4" which means some of the grinder burn from my last project is under the adhesive, but my enthusiasm for the great band-aid chase had waned, so I chose to accept defeat. At least the grinder damage is under cover again.

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
