I apologize... My beeper just went off and I dialed the number back and it was the message I've been waiting on. All I can say is Hakuna Matata chucky time! I believe!

Atta baby!!!

I've spent quite a bit of time in East Africa...I know what Hakuna Matata means in Swahili! 😀
 
Spindles are hard to keep consistent? Not if you take an old camera out of your print shop, remove the photo taking stuff, add a router to the camera adjusters, mount your lathe on the side of the camera, install a jig and commence to make them babies.

The first spindle I made took 2 or 3 hours. The last ones took under 5 minutes.

Thanks Sam. :)

Absolutely if youre using a duplicator of some form, but Im talking old school freehand using calipers, parting tool, and spindle gouge...

Machinists lathes with xy axis are tha bomb...my next investment.
 
You are close to my dad's age (72). All my father's friends have zero clue how to use a computer. My dad computer is a $3,000 machine to play mine sweeper and solitaire.

Not quite that old yet I'm 61 and semi retiring in February. I'm a Bank Rep for an Auto Finance Co and stay on the computer 6-8 hrs a day....again I pray your wife will do just fine
 
1990 called.

They want their beeper back.

Indeed. But I had a lot of fun building my "duplicator" from scratch.

Wow, check this thread before hitting the sack to see some convo about Squatches and Boom! Now I'll have a hard time sleeping. That little self conscious Tennessee fan that thinks no one wants to coach us is almost entirely eradicated. Cannot wait!
 
My 1st degree was from ETSU, 2nd from UT. I live about 30 minutes away from you. Do you frequent the craft store for woodworkers in Boone's Creek?

Timeline for announcement still in December or was that Nov. 26 date I heard possible?
