I will try and be breif with my explanation but I was setting around playing on the computer July 4th and ran accross somebody wanting to sell something. Well yesterday it somehow showed up in my shop and I am thrilled. That is my first gloat. The second is that Travis Stinson made a visit and spent the night on his way to American Sycamore. We played in the shop until midnight and then again for 3 hours this mourning. That is Travis making curls. Yesterday was truly my lucky day.

I can now retire, as my work is done.

Travis on Mayo.

And I'm not bothered by that last pic. Just spoke with Travis and he reported that this was the expression on his face when it dawned on him that he'd wasted all those years spinning on mustard.

Wahooo!

Congratulations Keith! I'm not sure which would make me more jealous, standing there wishing I had that big hunk of Mayo or standing there watching how Travis "git's 'er done".

Congrats Keith. What a gloat. I don't know which one is bigger. Travis or the Mayo.

So you were just fooling around on the 'net, huh? I'd bet that you were looking for that little baby, weren't you? Now, 'fess up. Congratulations on that new Oneway. You are already able to turn some fantastic stuff off the one you have; I'm almost afraid to think what might come off this one.

This was a gloat of the first degree. Have fun!!

Thanks all !! I played awhile tonight. Couldn't decide what I wanted to do first so didn't get much accomplished except gett the feel for it. I had to keep slapping myself to make sure it wasn't a dream. I am one happy camper. It's nice being able to share my excitement with my friends here !

I hope you enjoy yours at least half as much as I do mine!

You will find that everything looks better and turns better now that you know the Oneway to turn:D

Enjoy!
