BAD INFLUENCES!!!!! ALL!!!

You people are all evil.
Now I think I'm infected. Starting to show the symptoms.
Why else would I be pricing out lathes online?
Haven't used one in years.
And never with wood.
Maybe if I can find a cheap one............

It's pretty much downhill from this point on isn't it?
There is no cure is there?

sawdust is kind of like crack cocaine. (not that I have ever tried that) It sucks you in and won't let go. You will look at furniture in your home in a whole new light. Go ahead...do it....just make one...

Already looking at the furniture. And anything else made of wood.
I'm just glad the TV and the computer aren't in the same room.................

This all started by someone giving me an old rod with a wooden handle two years ago.
The rest of the rod disappeared/was thrown out. Left with the handle.
The rusty little gears in the head started turning.
?????????????
I'm just thankful there is something wrong with my Amazon account. (Can't order.)
Plus my modem is on it's last legs;can't stay connected.
I have to sleep on it.
Jet or Delta?
Leaning toward the Jet.
Thanks for the help.............I think.
And I was hooked on the smell of sawdust years ago.

SOK, you're done, cooked, will be found frequenting local dump/transfer station ogling chairs that others want to get rid of, yet you see plugs hiding in their maple arms and legs Right CS?

My Wife already caught me Glueing little Eyes all over the Kids Old Crib.

When I look at the Dining Room table I instantly think how many 8-10" sections can I get out of it......And it has to be 2"x2" contruction

unfortunately... everythin you've read is true... It's VERY addictive. My list of things I've made is only eclipsed by what i NEED to make.

All done. Going over to the dark side.
Just pulled the trigger.
Jet variable speed mini.
Price was just too good. ($251 before the rebate)
Airbrush? Need a compresser with that too right?
Now I have an excuse to buy more tools?
Make it stop.

I will NOT make it stop!
I know how you want to suffer....
I know how much pleasure you derive from the pain....

Welcome to the dark side, fellow North Shore plugger :-)
