When life deals you lemons,

[Nikon Ron]

Sorry to have been gone so long but we had a long term illness at home ending with the death of our hero and WW2 marine vet.
So, I have not spent much time in my shop for quite awhile. I did get the qctp and I still have to drill and tap a new hole in the compound rest to be able to use it. Hopefully that will happen soon so I can post some pics and projects.
I still may take awhile to get to my shop as we are still disposing of my father in-laws possessions and cleaning up the bedroom.
If I don't get back before Christmas I wish everyone a happy one. Thinking of all the vets out there on this Pearl Harbor Day. Thank you for your service to our country!!!!!

Ron,

My condolences for your loss.

Sometimes a distraction like a hobby can help. Join us whenever the spirit moves you.

Ron,
My FIL, whom I was very close to, passed away about 17 years ago. I still pick up a tool or something he used occasionally when I'm at my MIL's house. I have quite a collection now and I think of him every time I use one of them.
Sorry for your loss.
Tim,,,

Thanks to all for your kind words.
When I finish with all of the "honey do's" I will get busy in my shop again. I am really anxious to get this little lathe up and running.
It has been rather cold here in the Klamath Basin for the last month, in the teens at night. I just happen to have a good heater out there so it won't be a problem.
I wish you all a happy and holy Christmas. After all, "Jesus IS the reason for the season". Later my friends,

Ron, sorry for your loss, but Dad in Law is just in heaven a little ahead of you setting up the shop. You can thank him when you join him later. In the meantime a hobby can ease the empty spot and remind you of the good times you spent together. Have a great day and a really great Christmas with you and yours. Semper Fi and Hoorah!!
