Default Turning while Camping

Good posts, JD and all, No criticism here, just trying to help you keep
the old ng going.

Your explanation explains. Seems you were asked to demonstrate turning
at a camp to help out the manager, not asked to go camping. All the club
program chairmen on rcw know her problem and can empathize.

How about making a small bungee lathe, dimension lumber held together
with nuts & bolts that can be taken down & put up easily. More in
keeping with camp, takes few tools, uses small green limbs, is safe and
cheap discounting the cost of aspirin and liniment plus loss of a day's
work to recuperate.

Anyway your thread sort of reminds me of a quote from Henry Adams
(great- grandson of John) ..."No one means all he says and yet very few
say all they mean for words are slippery and thought is viscous." Whew!
Guess I need to get out more and go camping, wth or without my carbatec.



Turn to Safety, Arch
Fortiter
