Nancy Not much but I have the feeling the closer it gets the less I will get. I have classes to teach all next week including Saturday and half the following week. Then the next week I head for Seattle.:eek: :eek: :eek: EEEK!! I have to figure out a way to squeeze in some setup and turning time. Oh well, if I cant sleep anyway maybe between the hours of midnight and 4:00 AM I can make some curlies.:eek: :confused:

I hear ya Paul! soon as that carrier pulls up I plan to start snapping away or if I can't then maybe the LOML will do it for me. I haven't felt this way since I got my Hopalong Cassidy two six shooter holster set when i was about six years old.:D Boy did that date me. Half these guys probably have never heard of that western hero!:)

Will you adopt me? I can sweep up the shavings in your shop and I can keep beauty limbered up when you are not using it.

When you run with the Big Dogs, you don't ask permission, you TELL folks that you WILL be posting pictures.

BillBill you earned the right to come turn any time you can. Without you i couldn't have finished that Vacuum setup.;) Now, when it comes to Big Dogs, I am too much indebted to all here to ever see myself in that light. Besides I still have too much to learn, I'm still a beginner in many respects.:o However, I will say that bark of that Big Mayo Dog isn't very intimidating any more.:D :p

Thats akin to 10 cent moves and soda with 5 cent popcorn, cartoons from 10 am to noon on saturday and Tom Mix , Hopalong ,Gene ,Roy and the Lone Ranger were the best, pickin up bottles along the road just knowing there will be enuf to get in and a pop corn.... sigh ... boy that was sure a long way to walk :D .

It's good to see that Brent has at least come a little closer to using the correct color of paint.

Yea, I'd say about 1/4 inch thick plate steel kind of thick. You gotta be like a kid on Christmas eve. Did the Doc give the ok to go to work on that bad boy? What kind of wood is going to be the lucky first piece?
