Thanks for the tip brother!

I DID have a fun learning 'sperience -- I bought a wood turning chisel at a yard sale. It was very old and high quality. The chisel was a razor.In my innocent stupiditity, I did NOT change out and make a new handle. There I wuz, cutting an oak bowl, and the chisel hit a hard(er) spot. The handle snapped as you can see. The exciting part was that the blade went whipping over my right shoulder to fly all the way across the garage, where the pointy end stuck deep in the concrete block wall!!! Big -- I am not afraid of anything... and that scares me.

I fell in love with the wood lathe in high school shop and the first thing the instructor pointed out to us, was the holes in the ceiling over the lathe.................

Back in The Olden Days, the high school woodshop had a lathe with a picture of a necktie with the caption:
"In a tie with a lathe, you lose."

Regarding my invention: The same damn' thing happened when I invented the wheel. And the plow. Rat's arse. Fartbubble.

Not only that, but the summon-a-gun is already marketing my invention! Moreover, have you ever tried to make an indented round cutting edge on the end of a fargin file? I'da bought the guy's whole dang set instead of sweatin' blood...

Oh, well... I DID invent 6-Up

 

[giggy]

morning everybody.

 

[Unca Walt]

Time for me to get loaded. Productive day. Had to quit trimming cause my fricken hands started cramping and wouldn't quit!! Almost done....will finish first thing tomorrow. Got my walks in as well.

I would help you for $15 per hour.

I couldn't pay you more than that...

 

[Unca Walt]

Walt , you have no fear......I would be afraid that my tool might get caught in the lathe
oh my

I just think exciting thoughts, and slip on a gom jabbar to be able to wield two cutters at once.

Thanks for the tip brother!

One more piece of important microwave info:

If your microwave stops working, it is because a plain old fuse inside has popped. The fuse is the kind you see everywhere: shiny ends on a tube of glass.

Just take the cover off and you will see it. Pop in the new one and you are back in bidness. MySonTheDoctor stopped me from throwing away my microwave by showing me this trick. I'm still using it years later.

Oh and the dreaded Micro switch , they can go bad too, need the multimeter to test them
But they go bad a lot from opening and closing the microwave door

Oh and never operate a microwave without that mica shield in front of the Magnatron Unit
It will cause body parts to srink and shrivel up.

Yabbut... that requires removing two screws. Beyond my capabilities.

For some reason , makes the Tongue grow abnormally long

 

[Unca Walt]

@Unca Walt your wood is impressive. Don't take that the wrong way

Thankee kindly, CW.

Here's a group of things... All the wood is bare wood. No varnish, etc. The white bowl was made from a piece of firewood that I nicked at a hunting camp.
