| HA!!! You laugh Grip, but here it is!!!! [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]The dicey part was attaching the SDC (Stray Dart Collector). First we tried a bolt, but then my son would have had to drill the hole while I was wearing the helmet to insure proper placement. However, if the stray hit the bolt then you have another whole problem, ricochets. Luckily, we settled on Super Glue. |

| It's not a hat, it's a Collateral Damage Minimizer. If I sell the patent rights to Cosmo, we can charge $2500.00 for one. |

I want one then, just so I can say I have a CDM Collateral Damage Minimizer, is it ok if I pay $5000 instead? |

Only high-class chicks that went to finishing school can do that. - getagrip wrote:

No problem Grip, with your forum discount and shipping to the UK, it comes to exactly 5000 bucks!! |

- Cant believe I actually broke one.
Put my board on a darts stand what I cobbled together and played in the loft for a few minutes, one dart deflected off another and hit the laminate flooring. I threw the three darts again and looked in horror as at first I thought my barrel had snapped then realised it was the stem that was at a 90 degree angle.
Hmmm not sure if I will get anymore now if they break that easily, I thought they were meant to be near indestructible??? Similar thing happened to me a couple of days back but mine broke clean off and I assumed it was just the flight come off until I went to retrieve the darts. They are nice, but I can't see me getting any more of these now either. I'm going to stick with the normal Cosmo stems once the gears are gone. |

| Well I like the look of them but as they have not proven to be any more durable I wont be buying any more either. |

| I just ordered 2 sets of the new Unicorn Omega Carbon Stems. Even including the upgraded shipping they are cheaper than one set of the Cosmo stems. Spent the whole day testing the SDC, but couldn't get a bounce out to stick in it. Good thing I had my Kevlar clipboard to protect my feet. |

http://www.thinkgeek.com/product/e769/?srp=1I've coached in some pretty tough places. We were in a gym in Philly where they had to lock us in the joint. |

| Yeah, Philly, Newark, Trenton, New Brunswick, Plainfield, the Bronx are all pretty bad places, but the closest I came to getting killed was in Gladstone, NJ. A Bentley almost ran me over in the parking lot at Gill St. Bernards!!! |
