Default It is still winter for many of us, what are you reading?

Winter still has us in its grip for many of us and I suspect more time is spent in the
house reading a book rather than out in your shop machining.

I'm currently reading Star Parkers "Uncle Sam's Plantation", GWB's book "Decision Points",
and Sen James Webb's, "Fields of Fire" on my kindle. I moved into the digital world
recently since I am filled to the gills with paper books and periodicals I can't find any
more space to store books.

Just finished Myth & Geology and while waiting for The Celtic Gods I'm
reading The Comets of God.

Yesterday I took the head and 6 foot platen off the horizontal mill,
next is the knee. Still can't decide on which kind of green to paint
it. Found the problem with the power drive, the worm part of the drive
is toast. Not sure how to get it off yet, the key way doesn't continue
to the end.

Could only do that for the weekend so now it's back to the house.
