As I was finishing unpacking I realized that The bed extension wasn't to be found. :eek: I called Sean at Toolnut and he said WMH must have screwed up, It was after hours so he couldn't get a hold of them, but he is going to make them direct ship it to my house.:) I have nothing but good things to say about TOOLNUT guys. They are a pleasure to deal with. Ok I'm heading back to the shop to get her wired up and see if I can make it spin.

Pennies wern't accumulating very fast. I think my wife was getting tired of hearing me grumble about my old lathe. Plus she knows that spring through fall is when I have the most time to be out in the shop. She told me to go ahead and buy it and we would figure out how to pay for it later.:) Actually with the money from the old Rockwell and our tax return.....covered over 2/3 of it.....didn't add much to the credit card. Had to do my share to stimulate the economy you know.
