Cool. I like lightning light shows.


What's the first project for the lathe?

I have some twisted drivelines to rebuild for a local logger first, then some work on combine parts for one of my farmers......

Any chance you'll find a quick change tool holder anytime soon?

Morning Don and Charlie, only a few lighting strikes here last night and just a little rain. Weather guys thought it was going to be more. Storm split east and west of us.

Morning Allen! We had marble sized hail for over a half hour last night just before dark. The ground was completely white...

No hail here, just a little rain.

Going racing this weekend, last race, all the boys are retiring from quarter midgets after this race.

That is what we would like to do, but there is no money right now for racing.

Good morning Oregon FTE gang and friends.

Morning Don, Charlie and Allen.

It rained HARD from 4:30 yesterday until about 7:00 it never quit raining jut slowed down a bit. Trees down, lights flickering, even one momentary power outage. Just enough to freak out some of the electronics but not others.

Heading back down to Junction City in about an hour to pick up the camper and a few other errands down that direction.
