Good Morning All,

Thanks for opening and breakfast Rick. Safe travels today.

Started out the day with a walk at 76F with high humidity heading to the 90's later. The only thing I did  at the workbench yesterday was cutting off sprue from 12-3D printed people and spray them light gray. Late in the day I did get the gutters done.

Today will be spent doing errands for Dad and Son. I doubt I will make it to the workbench. I also have a haircut and beard trim at 1 pm.





I hope everyone has a good day.

Good morning folks,

Rick, thanks for opening, coffee, and breakfast. Safe travels and good luck at the stereo shop.

Curt, good luck with your errands.  Have fun painting all those figures.

It's a hazy morning. Eye appointment went well.  The cataract surgeries were a success.  I ordered new glasses yesterday.  It will be busy all weekend with family functions. 

Have fun,
mike

Did you do both eyes at once, or was this Eye #2?  I'm in that strange state between eyes.  The new eye is very nearsighted, and I'm going to look for cheap readers today.  For now, close vision is mostly using the very blurry other eye, and I'm feeling some eye strain.  Eye #2 gets fixed in 2 weeks.  

The big blast of spam applications continues, I've asked Keep It Rusty if the forum software allows to block the one IP address where all this crap is originating.

Morning gang.

Not certain where this week went....several short trips for food, medication, and gardening supplies.

Gena's car went full dumbass in the evaporative system. The money light was on. Sorted that out after spending bookoo bucks! All in the name of gas vapors!

Raining now so garden activity has paused. The corn is up!

Did a bit of casting and 3dp the last couple of days.



All from my foxhole!

Morning all,

Thanks for breakfast Rick. Love the picture of the SNP.

We ran many, many errands this morning and now we are home. 

Nice pictures today Curt, eve3n though they are Pennsy! 

I'm going to try to get something in the train shed done today. Pam has paint samples I'll put on the wall. You know what that means. 

Have a safe and happy day everyone.

Morning everyone

Nice breakfast Rick and the coffee is hot!
Great picture.

Curt nice pictures again this morning.

Mike glad the eyes are doing okay.

Morning Dave.

Philip sorry to hear about the car problems.

Weather in South Jersey is cloudy/59.  And that's the best it's going to be.
Speaking of cataract surgery I had one done 20 years ago and then the second one 10 years after that.
I hope today to get back to shingling.

Everyone have a great day!!

Good Morning,

Rick thanks for the coffee and breakfast this morning. Save travels to De Moines. Thankfully the second Dentist visit was included the the price already.

Curt I feel your Paine with all the errands; they tend to eat up a lot of your time.

Mike glad to hear the ol' peepers are good now. Enjoy the family time.

Dave hopefully having #2 done will straighten out your vision. Spam seems to be everywhere; we must get probably 15 spam calls a week, Thankfully our digital phone warns us if it's spam or not; if yes then "Leave a message" which of course they never do.

Philip in NYS if the "money light" comes on you can pretty much figure it's time for a different vehicle.

Jerry have fun shingling.

What's on your agenda.

It's a sunny 57 with a high of 67. Need to finish up the garage straitening this afternoon then maybe lawn mowing again. Going to throw down some grass seed where the dirt pile once resided. Bench time?

Have a great and safe day!! Be well.

Good morning everyone,

Thanks for the coffee and breakfast Rick, safe travels.

Current weather is 16c (60f) with a few clouds in the sky.  Spent some time 3d printing partitioned drawers for the electronic part cabinets I designed a couple of years ago.  After that, it was watching the hockey game.  Montreal won, so all is right in the world.  I already dropped Gracie off at the groomers and visited the vampire, pretty soon I will have to go pick Gracie up.  Not sure what I will do at the bench this evening but I know I need to get some work done this afternoon.

Have a great day everyone.

Ron. What made you decide on Claude? I use Claude rarely now though that's where I started in 10/2025.

Montréal needs to win for a hockey sweep of the Pro Hockey Cups. Watched the Women win last night, good game

TomO,

I picked Claude because it was recommended by a co-worker.  I know that there are others out there that I will probably play with, but right now, Claude gave me what I needed.

The woman's game was a close won till Montreal blew it open in the third period, but the right team won in the end.  One cup down, one to go.

Larry, no emission testing in KY. Sending a bottle rocket up!
