Kris if there is anyway I can swing it once we move back to the states this August I am going to place an order with you for at least one frame. I turn 44 in August and it’s all I want for my next 5 birthdays. I remain a fan very much rooting for you. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Kris, thanks for this thread. I have just finished a complete reread as I sit on the couch for my second week in a row with my left leg elevated from a pretty rough bike wreck. Going too fast on a gravel road has led to a pretty bad road rash and loss of one Bursa sack. I love this thread and...

I hope once it’s all set up it serves you well. I’m sure it will.

Hey Thomas, I just saw the pictures of your wood shop. Like the vintage equipment. However, I am partial to the SawStop though as that was my work home for 8 years. I now work for their new parent company near Stuttgart Germany. Thanks so much for keeping us posted. Cheers, Jeremy.

So much, glad to have you with us again. I love your work so much. I wish I could take classes from you. Alas the commute from my new home in Germany might make that a bit hard though.

I am very very jealous of your rem-line

Congratulations to all. I have been following along for the whole build and am excited to see the finished product. I am also excited to see some of the more detailed posts I am sure Tomas will provide when he has time to catch up.

Drives: thanks for checking in. That bin is a beast and will fit right in next to your selves. Congratulations on your daughters wedding. I am sure she is going to love the chair you are working on. As for my lamps I think you are right I seem to have found myself a nice little niche making...

Thanks xtremek. Speaking of Christmas I was able to get one totally new lamp done and delivered as a present for my nephew. I have no idea if he likes it or not but a few other do. Hope you all had a great holiday season and enjoyed your families.

Drives and 1/2 cup. Thanks for checking in. It is always great to hear from you guys. I hope you are yours all have a wonderful Christmas and happy new year.

Thanks for the kind words. I honestly can't point you to anything special on the socket front I use standard candelabra bases for these lamps I just custom modify the fittings to accept them. In this lamp I use one of these fittings for the head, and one of these inside the thunderbolt shaft...

I just finished up another one for a friend at work. I think she said it was going to be a gift for a cousin that just had a baby boy. So it has two flickering thunderbolt night lights.

Rmalkow2: thanks for the kind words and encouragement. I have been really enjoying making the lamps and hope to continue for some time to come. As for colors I am happy to paint them however the buyer chooses. The one for my in-Laws is actually a chocolate brown color. The one I just hung in...

Overkill: thanks for the kind words. As for your question. I drill a hole in the glass insulators and just put a piece of lamp pipe through that attaches to the light socket on one end and a custom adapter on the other. It just so happens that lamp pipe 1/8 IPS and 1/4 IPS dates back to the days...

Drives thanks for checking in. I have been delinquent posting recently and I am sorry for that. To answer your question no I haven't finished the big red vise yet. Actually my whole welding table is still a work in progress. I have all the pieces and parts together it just lacks a little final...

That looks great Lane. That is exactly what motivated me. We we remodeling a bathroom and wanted to get a new fixture but the stuff we liked was so expensive I couldn't do it so I just decided to build my own. Speaking of which I am working on a new one for the kitchen right now. Here it...

Wow Joe; thank you so much, your praise is not only very flattering but somewhat humbling as well. My boys love their beds but my oldest has started asking for something different, like a loft bed. As for the deck we love it. Thanks so much to all for following along. Sorry it took me a little...

I actually looked to see how far a drive it was. Unfortunately 2600 miles is a bit outside the range no matter what the deal is.

That Beach stack is glorious I am very jealous of you Canadians. They are top of my list.

Drives: that Fulton looks like a peach. But is it missing a pipe jaw? Also is it for me?[emoji106]
