I used to watch this program on PBS. He used non powered tools, except human power. https://www.pbs.org/woodwrightsshop/

How about a pic of your lathe? I have a Powermatic model 90.

I had good parents, but at 14 or so, my mates and I did some asinine things in general, especially on bikes. I think back on the stuff i did and wonder how I survived mostly unscathed, and without a criminal record.

My cheap internet bike, 2 years now and no problems other than a couple of flat tires. I learned to watch where I ride now. I'm so naughty, after you said no complete bikes in your rules.

My rides are seldom planned, i kinda don't like schedules and commitment. When I decide to ride, I just grab my helmet, mobile phone, HT, and some water and i'm in the wind. I'm definitely a spur of the moment type. But I always give the bike a quick once over before I leave, tires, chain, etc.

Nope, a no name Amazon special. Just a collection of decent parts, Bafang motor, Sony cells in the battery, 4 amp charger, Shimano shifter bits, etc. I wanted all easily obtainable parts with none of the proprietary parts some bikes use, just in case. I broke a caliper on a rock and had a...

Well, I can't believe it's been almost 2 years since I bought my inexpensive ebike, sort of a test to see if I would use it much. Well, I'm still having a blast on it, and other than 2 punctured tubes, and a taller riser on the stem, it's needed nothing other than chain maintenance and brake...

It all sounds pretty good to me. I like people and bustling cities, so other than the cold winters I think I'd fit right in.

It's spring around these parts, mid to high 60's F. I've been taking advantage of the great temps, and I have been getting in some nice rides. Some might think I'm crazy, but I can't wait for the SoCal summer temps, 100 F plus. I'm a native Ca. and I love the heat, but it's still pretty nice...

The best helmet is one that fits well and you wear, every time you ride. I have a Specialized in hi-viz yellow to maybe get noticed by the cages. Same color for my motorcycle helmet too. Locks are just a deterrent now, for a lazy thief, due to the cordless grinders and the like, watch where...

I like the OSHA approved footwear.😁

Pork pie? I used to eat them occasionally when I lived in England. I wouldn't eat them now, but I remember they were okay at the time.

Not a dumb question at all, left handed threads are used for obvious reasons and it saves a lot of aggravation and potential damage to find out first,

This post got me thinking, I've only seen the Doobie Bros at the Hollywood Bowl in around 1974 or so, and the Marshall Tucker Band around the same time, again somewhere in LA, and my absolute favorite live venue was Jimmy Buffet in about 1978 in Santa Barbara. That's it, for a paying fan, but I...

Yes, very early Doobie Bros were a great band, but then IMO, they morphed into some kind of pop band that had no connection to the original sound. Never cared for them after that.

Impossible for me to pick one, but my best rock ever, if I think back, I seem to be partial to southern rock, you know Marshall Tucker Band, Lynyrd Skynyrd, and the Allman Bros, I was listening to that in 1975. Of course I still listen the the Doors, really a great jazzy sound for the time, way...

I did this when I was young, so yes I like cats.

We're fixed and are good cats. We don't pee on stuff. Mostly we lounge around and scare the mice away.

What payment method did you use? A C/C company or PayPal should help if you paid through them. You paid the full amount up front?

An electric "Taco 22". Remember those?
