[200q20v] at least I cleaned out the sunflower seeds

[Kneale Brownson]

Baum lists the 3214 tool as a "hot new" item on page 30 of their 
catalog.  You have to contact them for the pricing.  Ph  941.927.1414  or 
fax xxx.1612.  You can e-mail danabaum at crl.com, but they'll fax you a quote 
and you have to call or fax to order.
