Got flagged over the other day on my way home from work by a buddy who asked me to stop by in an hour. Apparently he had been tripping over this for too long and figured that it would fit in nicely with the theme of largely pre-war machine tools. It's pretty ugly, but was supposed to be...

I have been meaning to come up with some kind of levelling feet for the lathe, and being as it's me, they also had to be free...... A little dive into the tickle trunk and I have some hockey pucks, and some cut offs from an old hydraulic cylinder and some steel discs cut from a bent up underbody...

I never watch these talent shows, but she kept popping up in my YouTube suggestions, so eventually I gave in and clicked. An amazing talent is all that I can say. Just try watching all three songs and try telling me you didn't shed a single tear....... Enjoy....

I went looking for the thread I started as I was looking for a name for this truck mount, but couldn't find it for the life of me, but that's not the point of this rant.... I used about every search term I could think of, starting of course with the simple "Ford cargo cab mount" probably tried a...

I figured that I would start a thread of some of the random doings that go on around here. If I ever get back to on-topic type projects, I will try and give them their own thread. They say that the line between brilliance and insanity is pretty thin line, I'll let you be the judge.

@YYCHM and I snuck into all of your shops and took every last 8mm tap you had, and one 6mm. Who puts a 6mm in the 8mm slot? @Susquatch , was that you? @DPittman will be handling any financial transactions regarding the ransom of said taps....

A while back a fella dropped by the shop I was working at and mentioned that he had some drill bits that he wanted to get rid of..... I haven't gone through them yet, but for $100 I am a pretty happy boy......:cool: Some of them are pretty rusty, but the majority are serviceable as is.

A few weeks back, I partially severed one of my tracks, and in typical fashion I was a long way in from the road and in some very steep terrain. Well, I limped it out of there when I was done and have been using it on light duty while I formed a plan to replace them. I have a spare that I have...
