Never thought I'd be sore from hobby machining...

Always wallet sore ! It's a deeeeeep hole .

Oh, yeah! It's easy to think, if I only buy X, my problems will go away. It's a lot harder to stop, think, and find a simpler way to get substantially the same thing done. It's not always possible, but many times it works. I'm always learning new things here on HM.

When leveling a machine it is desirable to have 2 people, one to red the level and one to tun the screws. Saves wear and tear on the quads.

Good to stretch during, and after a day like that. If I didn't stretch regularly, I know I wouldn't be in the fairly decent shape that I am. This is evidenced by the way I feel when I forget to do it. Seems it is usually the second day after the abuse that I feel it the most.

I have been a working man my whole life. When I was young, I could work the stiffness out in short order every morning, if there was any stiffness at all.
Since I have retired, I have come to really appreciate the woodstove and the hillbilly yoga practiced every day.
