    Good morning power tool users :pccoffee:

    I am currently simmering my breakfast/lunch: beans with bacon, onions, mushrooms & garlic scapes -- high wind warnings for later today. :devil:

    Yesterday was an actual work day, serviced her old Subaru. Fresh oil, new coolant (every 2 years), brake inspection and tire rotation. Today is gift wrapping day... :(

    Lets all have a good day guys!

    Few things finer than a free meal! :burp:

    That was the one (and only) perk to my old job, we had a really nice Christmas lunch provided by a local family Italian deli. Good as it was the meal wasn't worth being there for the other 364 days of the year... :rofl:

    The boss is taking the people that report to him out for lunch and we fly out tomorrow morning.

    Today's going to be a good day. :D

    I did a double check to make sure my cameras were still saving pictures before I depart and figured I'd post a before and after, now that the new building is virtually finished.

    I have the camera as wide as it is because the building on the left is being demolished once everyone is out of it. Hopefully they're out before it's demolished.

    Looks pretty good Cory. There's several good skill practices in that hammer:thumbsup:

    I thought it be nice to cut some ACME thread today for @BananaMan and show and tell a couple of double lead ACME nuts that I've had to make but my supervisor had his pants all bound up on having me work on this blank flange today. A blank flange that won't be used until next October.
    Ok boss:pout:

    That's very nice and thoughtful of you Jeff. I imagine those coworkers are much like family. Thanks for what you all do and happy holidays.

    Thanks! I’ve already got plans to make a better second one, and improve the finish on the head, as well as replace the aluminum head with a steel one to try to improve balance.
