[QUOTE="AlongCameJones, post: 3678524, member: 47875"] Ace Hardware site says not available in Lawton, OK. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.acehardware.com/departments/heating-and-cooling/fireplaces/fireplace-matches/4397410[/URL] Walmart lists those Diamond green matches for special order only and they get bad reviews at Walmart website. I just bought a box of the strike-on-box red tips from Walmart to keep in my kitchen drawer. The wooden match sticks are also handy for woodworking. I bought a wooden toilet seat at Lowe's this spring and the damn wood screws got loose already. Holes stripped out where hinges go. My grandfather taught me to use Elmer's glue and a piece of match stick to fill in a hole in wood. Might even be stronger than wood putty. When that material hardens overnight, I can screw the screws back in again and they should be tight. The wood toilet seat is China made and not the hardest grade of wood there is. There should be metal anchor points with threaded holes pressed and glued into the wood as a reinforcement. [/QUOTE]
