24″ and 40″ Bessey K Bodies went on sale at Woodcraft today. $22 and $27 respectively. The flyer says while they last, I went early and got another 2 of each.

We trained hard, but it seemed that every time we were beginning to form up into teams, we would be reorganized. I was to learn later in life that we tend to meet any new situation by reorganizing; and a wonderful method it can be for creating the illusion of progress while producing confusion, inefficiency, and demoralization.

You're lucky. Last Wednesday I went to my local Woodcraft, having seen the flyer, and asked if I could buy a couple before today, the 1st, and was told I'd have to wait. This morning I got there right after they opened and was told they were out! They told me they were sold before today. Go figure. They did, at least, give me a rain check, but wouldn't cover the cost of gas to get there in vain.
There's already a thread about that sale. It's not exclusive to Woodcraft -- Lee Valley has them and Rockler should also. Lee Valley is guaranteeing stock to anyone who orders by October 31st I believe. Please don't panic folks. Take a look here:

I did enter the contest at Woodcraft though: "Shop full of clamps." Ooooo, cool.
