First rough update of my home hobby shop page

Gunner:

Wow. I thought I had taken my hobby bench to the extreme. You have a full shop there, nice. Hope your toe gets better.

Rich

Damn! I sure would like one of those Gorton's! Nice shop!

You might consider some overhead outlets and a air line, as you fill the walls with storage cabinets it's going to get harder to find a outlet to plug power tools into. I ended up doing the overhead power and air with cord reels and hose reels at each end of the shop.

Best Regards Tom.

I see in some of the pix that you need my: "Smoke color - speed/feed chart" it is available for $9.95 and I take Visa/MC. (How much for the doggie?)

How much for the dog? :-)

All political bullshit and other stuff aside. Nice shop. And you can't be all that bad for a cat lover. I like cats too! They remind me of my wife, a mind of their own.

Regards, Bernd

Very nice. Mostly (all?) american iron. How many square feet in the shop?

Nice shop! Show us more....

Critique? We'll, I'll take you to task over the same thing I was with my page... the pictures (as you noted) are very slow to load... over broadband with a slow computer. I can only imagine that they are excruciating over dial-up. A "front page" allowing viewers to choose which pictures to view and/or lo-res versions should speed things up drastically. Case-in-point, your "For Sale" items load last and their viewing depends on the patience of the viewer.... he's not willing to wait it out and scroll to the bottom... your items are never seen.

I'll throw this out to all as a generic problem. Your items, while appealing and priced reasonably, are a gazillion miles from me. It is apparent from eBay and other sources that there is an absolute glut of desirable machine tools on the West Coast. These machines would be very salable on the East Coast, were it not for the cost of freight (and now we have astronomical fuel prices, to boot). If you fellows can figure a way to make the 3K-4K mile trip without drastically increasing the cost, you could probably turn a tidy profit.

Wotdedo? Kick the dog?

I went on a guided tour not long ago.The guide got us lost. He was a non-compass mentor.........sorry ........no I'm not.

Nice shop, but I also noticed there was no guard over the wheel on the surface grinder. I've been present when one or two of those have exploded, I would strongly suggest you get one for it. Lest the rest of you look like your toe.....or worse.

Ummm ... I did not notice any delay in loading. My ISP is COMCAST cable: 3 Mhz download last time I looked. Bob

Gunner? Not likely. Probably tripped avoiding a cat.

Blasphemy! The correct spelling is Shizuoka.

Nice toe, Mark.

First of all, what's up with that dog? Too many cats around?

Secondly, how about some pictures of the back forty.

Didn't see any square feet. Just one sqwooshed toe.

Hey Bernd,

I sent this to Gunner some time ago, from someplace else:

"To a dog, people are gods. To a cat, people are staff!"

Take care.

ps..... and Ooooooowwww. That hurts!! Even from here. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX >

That was bad. ;-)

What happened? They quit making steel toed cowboy boots?

(heh, heh, heh)
