I'd be willing to order another #2 holder and have it shipped to the house. CDCO seems to be the cheapest and has had reasonable quality for the price but where ever you would want me to get it from is fine with me. I'd also order how ever many dog point screws you would want from McMaster and include them in with the other stuff.

We'd just add it all up and make a single PayPal transaction.

And Bev and I passed 32 years together in February and will have 31 years married in July.

That sounds like a plan Arvid; would you be happy to make those postage arrangements from your end? I'm thinking if there is a struggle for room in the postage boxes you could leave the parting holder out as I am unlikely to use one- my insert parting tool will go in a #2 holder and I have several HSS parting setups that will also go in a standard holder. CDCO sounds good to me. As Darren said, this stuff is both hard to find and hard to afford here, so even with postage cost it is a winner.
Don't worry about the screws though, there are lots of industrial suppliers around my workplace who will have those.

Great to hear so many with plenty of married years under the belt. I'm looking forward to the next 30 with my lady.
