Perhaps they never had the parts - if they were, in fact, seconds.

Damned few barbers that do that any more. Most use "grooming clippers" these

Never did go to any meeting and TTTT never heard of the TeeVee show. I had the
wet suits and snorkel, etc. from my placer gold operation on the Kern River ...
with the surface dredge from Keene Engineering of North Hollywood and its
hookah rig.
