Good morning Oregon and everyone everywhere else. 27.4 and clear.

Mother called last night about 2000 asking for help so spent most of the night out at the farm imitating a vet. I think I have to go add another 4 scoops of coffee grounds to the basket............................................ ...

I paid him $350 for it, and it cost me another $150 to go get it.

Yes, it was a HELL of a great deal! I was looking at two others that we're over $1,800 each! No tooling yet.......Charlie has tons of tooling back in Maryland, but we haven't figured out how to get them back here without spending a fortune.......

We're working on it...... Pat is working on coming out next spring to pick up some bumpside parts, and we're looking to find someone to bring the tooling from Charlie to him so he can bring them out here.

I have just enough tooling to do the jobs I have coming, but really need the tooling that Charlie has to do the serious stuff. I felt so bad for Charlie, He took literally tons of shop equipment to scrap. I have a "new" grinder that takes 2"X14" stones and he threw away over 40 NEW ones! These cost over 125 bucks EACH! He said he has 7 containers of tooling that he just couldn't bring himself to scrap out. Wish just a pickup load would make it out here.........sigh.......

Mornin' Don.........
Why don't you and Charlie just go halves on one-way freight for all the tooling he has in MD?
A one time expenditure, that will pay off with big dividends in the future.

Sometimes, you just have to spend the $$$.
