My sister feels the same as I do. I know.<BR/>We've both owned a bathroom scale - the same one, from our dad's antique shop.<BR/><BR/>The sentimental value lies in the price tag in his handwriting that says $3.- (exactly like that).<BR/><BR/>That sticker's been intact for 18 years now and I know my sister will varnish it on if she has to in order to preserve it.<BR/><BR/>I'd think about putting your rope on display in a glass box myself.<BR/>Possibly under lock and key.<BR/><BR/>An oak or walnut one with beveled glass sides and top comes to mind .<BR/>With an antique padlock.<BR/>Peace.
