Shop Time w/T.W. Friends

When creed broke out the tall vise jaws the other day, I thought to myself, yep them are handier than a pocket on a nightgown.

 

Wondered if you still have these? I had no idea what it was for until a supplemental machinist helper come in a couple years after I got the 2 vise and told me...lol a stop for the back jaw. That's handy too. Super secret job going on here. Lift block.

 

did I ever mention how much I dislike woodwork?

 

I felt this thread was a little too quiet today, thought I’d add some randomness.
Did anyone check in on Creed? Last I heard he was the only man on deck in the shop and was pulling off some sketchy match-eeinin’. Hope that tin man’s hat didn’t get loose from the jaws and ricochet off the wall and into his noggin’.

 

@six5crèéd you still livin?

 

He went hunting. His son got an 9pt!

 

I believe the tin mans hat was successfully completed and he was on to the next job, possibly even finished that one. He must be busy, busy, busy

 

I know the feeling. I feel that way about painting, or home remodeling projects just because I'm not proficient at them, woodworking falls in that category too. For home remodeling work I call on a cousin who is a general contractor. My late FILaw liked woodworking in his retirement and made some nice stuff.

 

What you making?

 

just trimming out some windows. I, like creed, am finishing up on a renovation I started a year (or so) ago and have been persuaded to finish by my better half.

 

Not sure how I missed this, but congrats to @six5crèéd and cole for bagging a nice one!!

 

Found you a shirt

 

Where's @six5crèéd ??

 

Hunting’ with the boy. I’m sure he’s having a proud dad moment! Congrats Cole!

 

Some moments in life it really is worthwhile to put these phones down for special moments. I know how used to we get to having them now though. I've gone off to work a couple of times without mine and kind of freak out. I mean I survived just find it's just that moment you realize. ETA: oh my god I don't have my cell phone!

 

Yup! I bet they are both amped up!
