Thank you, thank you Gunner. You have alleviated my guilty conscience about my shop clutter. BTW were you injured when the explosion occurred?

Steve: I don't know where you got your bypass, but I don't remember any chest pain at all. Darn few pain pills after leaving the hospital. I do have a nice long scar though that seems to affect the nerves a bit right in the area of the scar. Have had my 3rd class flite physical for sometime now.

Looks like you could use a D9 Cat, and just push it all out the door and start all over! ;-) Greg

Where's the Confederit Flag? No Confederit Flag? Robert E. Lee Memorial?
How do you keep it so clean? Mine's a mess.
Steve
Thanks, fun to see. You need more tools I was surprised to not see any CNC equipment. Say, was one of those bikes the Indian you worked on a while back?

Hey, watch that Robert E. Lee stuff. He's a very sensitive subject in my family. Where my son goes to school, Lee's birthday, January 19th, is "designated and set apart by the Board of Trustees as Founders' Day" to be "observed annually, forever, with appropriate commemorative exercises."
The commemorative ceremonies are held just a few feet from the burial place of Traveler, Lee's horse. I never asked how deep they buried him, but I'm glad we didn't have to dig the hole.
On different days his "ranch" is either 1/4 acre, 3/4 acre, or several acres. And he says he's wrestled an 8' rattlesnake and a 2' centipede. Now, which of his answers for the size of his carport and yard would you believe?
No time left over after 2000 Usenet posts per week. Besides, his power is soon to turned off, and use of the siphon hose needs to be rationed in order to keep the fridge and 'puter runnin' for a few days after. Hopefully Palin will get drafted before that and declare days 30 hours long, so that gummer will have enough hours to tell us how he punked PG&E by spending $1 for what they used to charge him a dime for.
He had 4 gross of those in soggy cartons, but traded them for a 55 gallon drum of evapo-rust... that must have leaked out into the dirt.

Not even an Omniturn! No nostalgia for Gummer, eh?
Ayup...it was bike #2
The 15"x52 Clausing is in there as well...chuckle..though covered by my machining bench
One of these days Ill pretty up the shop..but at the moment..it works ok.
I was taking pictures of the Rockford drill press and realized that when I looked at the pictures..it looked much smaller in the photos. That vise on the drill presses table..is a fullsized 6" Kurt clone and the machining bench is 6' long
That Clausing 8540 horizontal btw..is for sale.

The blue machine on the workbench with the keyboard on the front is an OmniTurn CNC lathe control..the lathe is in the backyard. Ill have photos of it as I rebuild it.

If you could package some of that empty floor space into a flat rate box I could certainly use it over here :-)

Robert E. Lee was an honorable man, no matter what side he fought on.

It's a whole lot cleaner than I saw it a couple years ago. The new front door (rollup) makes a helluva difference, too.

Yes, he was. And so was the horse he rode in on. d8-)
I've found it really interesting over the years to try to put myself in the place of antebellum Southern gentlemen and officers. Such a contradiction; some of the finest people we've ever produced, with one big blind spot.
Lee was the president of my son's university after the war. He instituted a number of things, including an absolute honor system. Anyone caught cheating or stealing is given an opportunity to leave quietly, or to submit to a student court and be drummed out if they're found guilty. Most tests are given without professors or proctors present. Some are taken home by the students. It's amazing to me, but it works.
They hold Lee in high esteem down there, and Stonewall Jackson, too, who lived in town.
Even if he owned the place free & clear with no debts I doubt he could sell what must be (by now) a superfund site to anybody.
IF he had one someone might expect him to get a job & earn a legit income.
