i thought this would be a fun new years topic so whats your new years resolutions?

ok ill go first my resolution is to finish the things i start, try and find a decent mill for the shop and use it to pay for its self ;)

oh and before i forget everyone have a happy and safe new year
 
My resolutions, in a nutshell.... quit smoking.... and build a friggin I.C engine!
 
Try not to buy anymore milling machines, lathes, tools, finish some mechanic projects, clean the shop and keep it clean, then build some project like these great fellows here built, that should keep me till the next year resolution, hope I don't have to repeat them, Happy New Year all, Lathe Nut
 
I firmly resolve to never again make a bad part. :big: :big: :big: OK, my second resolution is: when I make a bad part, I will not sit down in my shop and cry :'( :'( :'(

Happy New Year everyone. Best of success in all your efforts,
Cheers,
Phil
 
My hope for the coming year is to build an engine that actually runs reliably,something that seems to have escaped me so far.
I've made a start on Jan Ridder's "simple two stroke",so here's hoping I have the skills required to finish it.
May I wish everyone a very happy new year.
 
I will not forget that I have a brand new 5/8" carbide end mill in the stationary spindle and traverse the X without looking raming said brand new currently stationary 5/8" carbide end mill into the hard vice jaw chipping a large portion of 1 cutting flute off.......AGAIN this year :redface2: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall:

Did I mention it was brand new.... :'( :redface2: :redface2: :redface2:

I only allow myself one new year resolution each year... For the past fifteen years that resolution has been the same each year, and I've managed to keep it :)

The resolution: "Not to make any New Year Resolutions except for the single one I'm allowed" ;)

Happy New Year to all!

Hmmm .... not giving up eating giraffes then? ;)

Happy New Year All Y'awl.
 
Find more shed time and work less. (less than 60hrs/week)


After today drive slower. ;D

Lance
 
mine is to tidy up the workbench after every session.

I expect it will last to about the 5th of Jan

purely on the grounds that I don't expect to get any shed time until the 4th ;)

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYBODY

Mine is to get more involved.
Happy New Year everyone

My resolution was twofold.

Stop smoking AND drinking beer.

Last night in a moment of weakness I drove into the convenience store parking lot
to buy a pack of cigarettes. It wasn't out of the way since I driving home from the
6 pack store with a 12 pack of beer.

Maybe next year....... ::)

Hi Gang

It was great of you all to make a New Years resolution and I wish you all the luck in the world at keeping them.

I would like everyone that has broken theirs to step forward and let the rest of the members know just like Rick did.

You notice that I didn't make any resolutions so I didn't have to worry about breaking them. I am getting smarter in some ways in my old age.

Cheers :)

Don

 
Well I'm holding true to mine, despite Steamer's attempts to break my resolve!
