numbering keys

[David Skolnik]

Barbara -
I thought you were at the beach!  Anyway, one source of these 
"stamps" as they are listed, is the company MSC Industrial Supply 
Company    http://www1.mscdirect.com/cgi/nnsrhm , though I assume you 
can find them from any of these full service providers - Grainger or 
McMaster Carr, etc.  On the MSC home page, click on the Big Book logo 
on the right and go to page 2594.  You'll see individual stamps as 
well as sets (at the bottom).  The one I have is 3/32", but I would 
probably go with 1/8".

Cheers  (plagiarized)
