Hahaha ha that's so funny. I see you put your initials on your tool. I did that also because my husband grabs my tools, and they end up in his toolbox if I don't mark them.

This was just what just what I needed. I'm currently looking to buy new jump rings. What is your take on the Artistic Wire brand of jump rings? I'm concerned about fading and tarnishing. I know some will tarnish eventually, but some turn colors so fast.
