Don't forget about your tab dude.

My wife was always telling me to get it if I needed it and she was always out with me know matter what I was doing she even got up on ladder to help me put up the rafters on a shop that I was building even thou she was afraid of heights. But I lost her to a heart attack a little over a year and a half a go and I still miss her very much she was one of a kind so what ever you do always tell her that you love her and don't for get they can be gone in a second. Cliff
I have to hide some things that I am looking at because if she see's it marked in book, she will order it, that is how I got the HF 7X10 lathe, looking at the picture the telephone rang and I was on the line with a custmoer, took care of business, she said that she put the book up, I am done with that for now, a few weeks later came home and it was on the floor, with a bow on it, she good to me but I am good to her, Cliff I am sorry to hear the lost of your help mate, gosh the older we get the more we depend on each other, don't even want to think about it, Lathe Nut
Cliff,
I think I understand exactly how you feel.
For nearly 40 years, my better half has supported me wholeheartedly in every venture or purchase I ever wanted, never one complaint at all.
In the middle of last year, it was my turn to give her as much support as I could, hence my disappearing from view for a while.
Luckily, things are now looking a little better, and we are a team again, for how long, we don't know, but we are going to make the best of it.
You don't realise how lucky you are when you get a good one, until that support is no longer there.

I got a good un,
Only known her for a week when i had a m/cycle trial to ride she declared an interest in coming ,tried to disuade by explaining the reality of a cold quarry in the high peek ,no she was coming .
One section was up a waterfall bit tricky very slippy ,last lap she is standing half way up with her camara , i made a good ascent ,got a few feet above her lost it and pinned her to a tree with the front wheel ,thought thats blown that ,but she laughed and that was that .
When racing came about ,drove miles North for one of the bigger events out the house at 4 am ,practise was all good ,first race got up to 3rd place made silly push for second and threw the bike up the road at nigh on 100mph !!!Dislocated thumb and a good bang on the nut .
Returnrd to my pit in the back of the recovery ,expected a bit of grief ,her words were "is that me driving the van home then " (she isnt a fan of driving the van )
She has always been real supportive of my garage activities and enjoys all the trick bits i make for the house and stuff .
Hang on for a goodun i say ,cant imagine gettin my ear bent for goin in the shed !!!

I guess I got a good one.
- Need a tool? Get it.
- Want the tool, but don't really need it? Better wait then.
A few weeks later it mysteriously appears on its own, thanks to my wife!
While I was laid off last winter, I made a deal on a Logan lathe, putting a hundred bucks down on it. I was buying from a friend of mine, and the deal was to pay off the balance and take it home once I got back to work again. Well, my wife managed to surprise me and before I was even back to work she told me to go pick it up. Naturally I commented that I still needed to finish paying for it. She responded "Don't worry about that, it's been taken care of. Get in your pickup and go get it!"
What a gal!!
