New around here.

[Dusty1]

Hi,

I'm not new being 57 years old, but new to the site.

I've been making engines, and cannon for a while.

Quite few names seem to be familiar to those on the other sites.

Couple come to mind are Powder Keg, and John Stevenson, both very talented fellows.

Just wanted to check in and say hello.

I've got a couple machines including a Fadal TRM, Bridgeport,

couple lathes and whatever a hobbiest/hone machinist keeps around.

Just bought a Prototrak cnc lathe but have to keep it busy to pay it's self off.

That's a bit of a problem (getting paying work, as well as fun work done).

All for now, we're In San Diego on Vacation for a week.

Welcome, Kap, though I question your wisdom in admitting to knowing any of these miscreants and ne'er do wells. This is a horribly evil bunch you've fallen in with and the worst of all is that escapee from the Home for the Terminally Weird over there in Hawaii. Even worse, he makes the big boys on the corner look positively angelic.

Seriously ... kind of ... the folks here are pretty cool and knowledgable about a wide range of things including, if I remember right, the fine art of home made whiskey.

BEst regards,

Kludge

Just back last night.

Get off the soap box (nail keg) Kludge! ;D

Okay, who told the newbie about me? Come on! 'Fess up!

This is my kind of people. These dirty fingernail people make the world go around. People just wern't made to work on their butts!

I solved the dirt under the fingernails problem. Clip them so close it can't collect. Or, if one's masochistic, extract them completely.

Anyway, I don't mind sitting on my butt working in some cases - like sketching my various ideas out on the beach ... although sometimes that's in a more prone position.

Work calls, ugg.

Ummm ... what's the "work" thing?

BEst regards,

Kludge
