Guess what the brown guy dropped off for me today? One of those boxes with a warning label that reads something like, "open in the shop, will be messy!" THanks Andy. Your avacado will be on the road soon.

I read today about a new Strain of Termite that showed up in
Ohio, California & Arizona..This new termite eats everything, trees, house,
car tires & who knows what else?? Authorities suspect the origin of this
new strain is somewhere in Maine & spreading thru UPS & Fedex
deliveries....Nice guy that Andy...

Glad the stuff arrived, Pat.
What's all that white goop on the inside of the box. Looks like icky gooey yucky mold. Be sure to wear a respirator when you work it - Seriously.
Mike - Lobsters turn much better on The Weber.

Actually Andy, That white stuff is stucco from my house, the pieces are in my wheelbarrow ( I had the UPS guy just put it in there, made it easier to move to shop) that I used to mix the stucco in. :D But yeah there seemed to be some growth going. And yeah, I'll wear a respirator or just not breath while I'm turning.;)
I put some more sealer on them for now, probably won't get to them til this coming weekend. I couldn't do anything with them today. Had a Marine over teaching him to use the lathe.

That's exactly what I was thinking!!! And then I imagined it!:eek:
Great score Pat. When I turned it, there was a smell that made me grab the respirator.....But by then, it was really too late. But I haven't died yet....At least, I don't think I have.;) :)
