Once. The window part of my birdfeeder was chewed
through by squirrels so I thought, replace it with glass,
there's some in the garage. Until that day I didn't realize
it wasn't window glass, but nice thick shelving glass. It
takes up no room because it's against the wall behind
strapping or bracing or whatever that is between the studs.

And it made a fabulous squirrel proof window. (laugh)
Funny to watch their astonishment at this smooth clear
material.

*bags* of clothing. Speakers. Etc.

price of copper these days?

Nice. And I bet you can find your stuff. I'm sick of buying stuff
then finding out I already have it in a pile in the garage.
