It's all in good fun Steve. Just teasing...Blush

We're all a bunch of tool junkies who can hardly wait to see someone's latest addition to their shop. We have to live vicariously since we can't all buy another machine every day. We would like to, but... Big Grin

Tell me about it Willie, I'm only 66 but my legs ache after 2 or 3 hours on the cement floor of my shop, I sit on my duff and dream up projects that I might have been able to do when I was 35. Worst of all when I see a machine available I start thinking about shipping costs, not the fact that my present capabilities are underused. My brain thinks like I'm 20 yrs. younger and actually funcions like I'm 20 yrs. older than I am. Sigh!

Steve, some anti fatigue mats on the floor will do wonders for your aching legs. And there are no projects you could have done at 35 that you can't do now, think of all the extra experience you can add to those projects now!

Btw, you guys cracked the code. My name is Justin. I use nitsuj on forums since "Justin" is always taken as a screen name. It's just easy for me to remember.

I agree. I can't stand on cement too long before my feet start to ache so I have mats in front of my lathe and mill and it makes a world of difference.
