   Maybe, but I'd have to spend some time resizing them for other   
   applications.  I put the fixture plate in the vises wrong, and they came   
   out with a wicked slant across the parting line surface.  I'll probably   
   use them for prototyping stuff, but not for anything I sell.   
      
   I was making a whole batch of extra hinged blanks for a mold that is   
   pretty popular.  Getting ahead of the curve.  Now I just have enough for   
   the current orders.  FRACK!
