    We were down state last year and saw this on a number of occasions. We finally asked someone what the backstory was. It's a Jeep thing. I didn't understand.

    I've had a number of #80 Cabinet Scrapers. When I was in rust hunt mode I'd find them all the time. I was up to four at one time but divested three during the great tool purge a few years ago,...
