I like cleaning the grease and dirt off and fixing 80 year old military rifles.Cleaning and fixing 50 year old lathes is fun too.I have an old machine to clean and fix tonight. It's a hot date!

I like buying, fixing and reselling industrial stuff, because Iget variety and exposure to a bunch of interesting things, without thehassle of continued ownership and also I do not mind the extra $$.i

What is the most fun metalworking?

Friend of mine had that skill, and as a "parting shot" after the wedding reception, did that to an old flame of his. She was that odd mix of "the bastard" and "he still cares" ... . Funny, at least to me.

Once went with a girl who needed one with five hooks. I soon learned not to fight with her lest she give me a couple busts in the face - I didn't have the time to chew the fat with her. Gerry :-)} London, Canada
