I am a very big fan of the adjustomatic. To my knowledge, Todd does not have adjustomatics even in the development stages though. This is a standard push tenon.

Still waiting on an OK to post the flyer. Also.. I thought that they were previously called "Adjustomatic", and Dr. G just dropped the "d" out to differentiate them from the older ones.. turns out my brain has just been auto-filling in the "d" for all this time, and I never noticed they were always called "Ajustomatic".

Yes, it is only available to mail order customers. You have to be on their mailing list, and you actually have to fill out a paper order form and send them a check with it to buy them. They actually sell all their pipes, filters, and accessories factory direct that way for a pretty hefty discount if you are willing to buy old-school. Kinda similar to how you can send Medico a check for 20 some odd dollars and they will mail you back a randomly selected briar. I really dig that they are still doing business that way, even if it is only on the side.
Doesn't get any more quaint than that.

Some people may say that's debatable :lol:
