ATM, its a bit cold here to go putzing around although I might get some 
free time later this afternoon to go install this toy ups. I have to 
start by figuring out where I hang it on the overhead frame thats also 
holding a 4000 lumen led light over an 11x54 CNC'd lathe.

I am also the caretaker for my bride of 30 years who is in the later 
stages of COPD. So I can't leave her unattended for too long. One of the 
advantages of outliving all ones enemies. ;-)

I've got another project going that will take some steel cutting and 
welding, outside work IOW, to fix a hoist over a milling machine, to 
pick up an 85kg machining accessory and place it on (or off) the mills 
table.

But todays project is to finish up the laundry.

People keep telling me I should act my age (85). I refuse. But it might 
take me a little longer than it did 60 years ago.

Cheers, Gene Heskett
