Exelite Handles

[Gary Adams]

The EPA thing is a joke but I have been told by family members to keep them away. Apparently it's a known thing about the degrading plastic.

If anyone knows how to get rid of it, this group would.  Not that I need them now, they represent many TCR-100 disassembles.  The rest of my old Jensen tool kits probably need a toss as well but not due to smell.  I’ve heard dipping in shellac might do it but may not be worth the trouble.  Thought everyone might enjoy this anyway.
