How do you dispose of mirrors without getting bad luck? Anybody need free mirrors for their ceiling?


Know anyone with a show car?

Are we actually seeing more floor space, or is this smoke and mirrors?

Mirrors? Maybe, maybe not. [emoji16]
Actually there are some used 24x48” mirrors leaning against Christine.

Mirrors against Christine?, you really live dangerously !

Guess that answers it.

Always smoke in Shortys shop and he just informed us of the mirrors :lol_hitti

As far as more floor space, I think he’s gotten good at aerial photography from his loft.

Or he’s using the mirrors, you know, things appear larger than actual size in the mirror!!

Very short bus

Even though we all know Shorty rides the short bus, that’s waaaay to Short for Shorty.

This has the makings of a country song.

🎶🎶 I’m spose to ride the short bus, but it’s too short for meee🎶
🎶🎶 Oh what do I do, she left me and sold my Tahoe to Strouty before she left.🎶🎶🎶

🎶🎶 the short bus is too short for me, for me🎶🎶

🎶🎶 So I’m stuck in my shop with a dummy named Fannie May, she’s hard and cold as can be🎶🎶

🎶🎶the short bus is too short for me🎶🎶🎶

Craig, these are the ones that make big things look normal.

Or he’s using the mirrors, you know, things appear larger than actual size in the mirror!!

I need a mirror, just a small one!

How small? Never mind. As long as the Mrs. can use the mirror.

And this is the only reason why I'd want to move south, to hang with all of the fun folks.


Come on down, we’ll be at Hooters or the beach.

Kirk, it's a side effect of the constant heat. Most of us have suffered heat stroke and fried brains make us funny. As in "short bus funny."


Darn, I thought it was the orange juice and a cool breeze up our shorts.

Great song. You might make the top 10k list with that hit. How about a YouTube video.

Cool bus. I can probably paint the Tahoe that scheme and me close.

Don, get the shop ready. We have our bus. We’ll be there as soon as we collect enough cans for gas.

Well Mr. K.H.Enabler struck again. I’ve been wanting a quick change tool post but to cheap to buy one. , He found a nice deal on a clone and sent me a link. Installed and testing out. IMG_3285.jpgIMG_3288.jpgIMG_3289.jpg
Now I feel like a real latheketeer.

Looks like I've missed out on some fun here. I have to spend some time with my family every so often though. LOL

That's one cool bus Jim.

Can't wait to hear Craig's song on the Top 10K countdown on the radio next weekend. (Not sure if they can fit 10,000 songs in a weekend, even without commercials?!?)

Glad to see you picked up a QCTP... it will certainly make your lathe time much more enjoyable and jobs will get quicker. Looks like you're figuring it out!

Mark, thankfully they can’t fit 10k songs in a weekend. Keeps our ears safe from Craig’s singing.

Oh don’t worry, I’m just writing it, I’ll get a pro to sing it.

Maybe Bob H can do!

If not, then Ray Stevens would do.

Well it’s 1:18AM and I’m waaaaaiiiittting on them to transfer my mom to a regular hospital room. Been here since 5pm. I swear I think they charge by the hour so keep you as many hours as they can. She’s ok, an infection.
While waiting I discovered there are are things in my size. ec3075361e2b43418c217978f0a9790d.jpgyep, that should work.
Found some casters e398412067425a43ebae1f6ba3fa4621.jpg and really nice bench light. a1fc1fd6546383747f3eb7d27c6b6654.jpg

The bra to go with the crocs

Those are nice. I think the wife as an agora sweater.

Shorty, how did you end up with such a large peanut gallery?


Well you see, being on the border of LA, lower Alabama, and Gawga we got us a lot of peanut fields. Each year we have us a festival and people take pictures of their nuts and hang’em in the gallery so other people can see their nuts. We won’t even mention the Big nuts like walnuts or peecans.

I like the way you think. You didn't happen to take your multi-tool with you, did you.

I looked for a cheap used surgical light years ago and gave up. Dental lights are affordable, however, and I use mine a lot at the workbench. Their 4" illuminated zone is smaller than a surgical light, but still useful for many precision jobs.
