Good lord, is this possible.... So with the update, does the user interface become more manageable? I find that ctrl/alt/del has little to no effect ......

Allowing the update may make the insert key more effective.Good lord, is this possible.... So with the update, does the user interface become more manageable? I find that ctrl/alt/del has little to no effect ......
Never was actually able to get the Mute Button to work on mine, either!
The difference between 'wife' and 'wood'? You can stabilize Wood!
I'll be around tomorrow if you are interested in the half dollar tour. Maybe go for lunch as well?
Edmonton.
Thomas Skinner and Sons is worth a visit, mainly to see how the big guys run. Most of the machine tool supply places are chasing the Oil Patch money harder than the rest, though a few places are/were ( I moved to Cold lake in 2004! But still shopped there till 2012) still willing to deal with the smaller guys.
Bedrock Supply, if they are still around. Jewellery/Lapidary/Arts and Crafts supplier. If you can walk through there, and not have a thousand or so new ideas pop up in the fore-brain, they should be watering you, not feeding you! Seriously. Never been in a better loaded up store full of different and interesting things!

Haha took me a minute to read between the lines. I was wondering to my self why all the breweries have machinery.
It's not too bad here I used to pass threw and do my pressure testing/cwbs. Just bit cold ATM to be visiting much better in spring.
Just need a wife with ADHD. I just ask mine few trivia type questions and she gets lost on google trying to find the source of the information. Usually distracts her for few minutes at a time.
And I'll look into those places see how much time I got to burn. I wanted to bug Stan for a tour see there lathe grinding machine up close. But feel like they wouldn't like that lol.

I should have picked so well! I got the OCD model with a side of suicide threats!
I wouldn't wish it on anyone...
I got the tiny vicious Italian mafia nympho neatfreak filer who hates piles kind. I never know if I should run, or hide, or surrender. Been an interesting life.......
Oh educational upgrades....i was totally thinking maybe they were upgrades of a different sort.
Nah took me 10 years to get her trained this good don't want to have to start over lol. I do threaten to replace her with 2 hot Asians but she just looks at me and laughs so not sure if it's really a threat?

When I get to the bright lights a stop at the Metal Warehouse is a requisite for a dash thru the full lengths new stuff and a slow saunter thru the cut-off bins
Haha that could be dangerous, I only drove up the Honda civic. I do enjoy digging threw cut offs. Same as industrial scrap yards but the only 2 scrap yards near me that handle industrial scrap stopped letting you dig threw the pile
