    Wouldn't it just be wrong to package up a T shirt or a bottle of pre-mix in a full size Stihl box and send it to your victim? :whistle::eek::rofl: :lol:

    Received my SS gift this morning. Shake Rattle and Roll. It doesn't Shake much, it does Rattle a little and it doesn't Roll.
    The box is shaped like a box that a new shotgun comes in. I guess I will have to wait another week.
    From some sleuthing, I was pretty sure I figured out whom the sender was, but they may have pulled something that I did. I put an out of area relative's address on the return. Yes, I may be giving out a secret.

    Haha, I don't even think that's possible! If you didn't sign up how could you get a gift?? Does anyone have your address even?

    Stick a hunk of soapstone in your boot!!! I guess it's done prior to wearing them then you remove them when you put boots on?

    Wow! Your PO must employ some real Neanderthals.
    Don't know if supper glue would work to put them back together, but would think refractory cement would work. Maybe BrianK could help.
    At the very least I would get a hold of the manufacturer. Or you can have a boot warmer, a half boot warmer and a pocket warmer. LOL

    Soapstone can be worked with woodworking tools and files. The cracked one can be filed and sanded into individual hand warmers.

    They absolutely destroyed the secret Santa box I received and I mean mutalated it... It had been taped up with what looked like an entire roll of packing tape and was still hanging out one side:confused:

    I told the postman and he said a lot as been showing up that way as of late. They are pretty good in town but this time of year is a total crap shoot on freight items...
