    Anvil/ mounting tool

    Can anyone suggest or link me to a supplier for an anvil that will keep the opticians up front from ruining the new countertops?

    If not, won't be long before they're fouling up the counters again.

    Thanks!!:cheers:

    1. get a metal corner gaurd -cut into ~ 6 inch pieces mount to each counter

    2. threaten lives, paychecks or both of employees to not mess up counters.

    Go to your favorite sporting good store and buy a few hockey pucks for about 1,50, oooh sorry I posted prices !!! They can support the edges of frames to inset temple screws without slippage
    Money carefully refunded

    You gonna find this hard to believe but I have never even seen a hockey puck. And I'm real sure I couldn't find one in a sporting goods store down here.

    I'll send you one if I find one!

    Heck, if one of our Canadian friends would part with some of theirs, we could all have one!
