Hell, Bill. In just six to ten more months, you'll likely have the
answer!


I year and a half ago, my wife and I moved into our house and so I
finally have the chance to "build my shop". She says all she wants me
to make for her is a birdhouse (but I've got her waiting on furniture).

And I have to tell her that I need a drill press, band saw, table saw,
router, fluorescent and task lighting, and new electrical sub-panel
panel to make this birdhouse.

Reminds me of the cute story that ends with the question: How much did
it cost you to make that little table (birdhouse)? $100k. : )

My numbers are smaller of course, but it still makes me smile.

Another antique metal-cutting lathe showed up at the local auction this
week. More petite than the monster that showed up a few months ago.
I'm either becoming more particular or becoming a conniseur. It's
cheaper and easier to be a conniseur than a collector!
