Good to see the Sammy back.....still regret selling mine I think the rubber bands suck as usual....even a vintage looking POS is still a POS!

That is funny Gary ! ..Oh man, still laughing here !

I wonder if maybe the bands are more comfortable here with these, and maybe only look identical
to the vintage ones. But are softer, or more flexible.

P.S. Didn't realize you had the original like that sir ! At least you got to experience one for a while.
