[Jim Donovan]

Good Morning Folks;

We had rain, very much needed I might add, come though last night and suppose to get more today. I continue to fix up my workbench area. I bought a complete enclosure with built in ventilation for the 3D resin printer. Up until now I have been relying on a vent fan system. The complete enclosure will beep all the fumes contained. The wife is happy so therefore so am I. I plan to organize the laser cutter and wood supply area today and perhaps get some actual fun time in on the bench.  Hope everyone has a great day.

Good morning Jim and later arrivals. The NH seacoast has a light overcast now, headed for the high 60s later but more rain tonight and tomorrow. I got up early and decided to upgrade a laptop. The process completed but the new software thinks the display is 640x480 Time to go twiddle things.  I mowed yesterday so later I'll probably spend some time on the layout.

Not much else from me today.

Have a great day ya'll.

Morning crew. Over cast here in Western NY. but no rain. Mowed a bit yesterday. Grass was getting a bit high.

Today I've got to fix the wife's Beetle trunk lid. The gas struts won't hold it open. Then to the work bench for some modeling.

Here's a picture of a project that was and still is in progress on the MRH forum. Reason for posting it's it's owners name on the factory. A few from here know of this build. I think you'll find it interesting. Can anybody guess what's different about it other than the name given?

Sun but only 35⁰at the beach this morning 

A good day to Chill out    I've a couple smoke detectors to put batteries in, we were met with a cricket chirp upon arrival Tuesday.  9v batteries are pri$ie in numbers, $7/pair in store brand at TSC.

Visited our builder's wife last evening, he passed away a couple months ago. We enjoyed chatting with her.

No big plans today. May take a walk.

Everyone have a good day.

Good morning Jim and crew. Sounds like a useful upgrade.

My computer laptop needs an upgrade. It is slow so!

Those lift clips can be tricky Bernd. Great structure!

I'm doing a Tom / ACL kind of morning! Rain!

Coffee on the counter folks. Have a good day! Hey Karl!

Good morning all.  We're having a beautiful day in Tidewater Virginia, so we're about to go for a walk. 

I changed the way the staging areas fastened to my switching layout.  The old way was too complex.  It's been a while since I've done any operations, that's going to change.

Morning all.

Apparently my wife has planned for us to go out for a late lunch later.  I will mow later this afternoon.  It's a rider, so I won't be stressing the knee.

Afternoon all,

I'm praying things go well for your wife, Tommy.

Not much workbench time the last two days. A couple of good books got in my way. I should be able to get back to it now that those are finished.

Have a great one!
