| Thanks Don. I have no idea why I need 16(+) handsaws, but they seem to keep following me home. |

| Never did learn how to use one of these, but just looked at your wheels and am humbled. However, I am quite familiar with all those wooden handled things in the background. |

| I don't know if I can list the buyer of the plastic models, but I will because he also has balsa kits. Be forewarned, his prices are on the high side, but comparable with Evil-Bay. His web site is: oldmodelkits.com. |

| Been waiting for years to get a small lathe but the price always scared me too. Remember the pile of plastic kits that I was sorting out several months ago? I sold about a third of them to a collector, so I had the funds available to purchase it. |

| Lucky you! I've always wanted one but like JO, price kills it for me. |

| Just checked the price tag....do not need it that much! |

| Sweet design, must copy it! |

| Must have one of these! |

| Very cool. I'd like to get a lathe someday, but I'm pretty fond of all my appendages. |

| Just saw this in my area a little over a week ago. |

Lacing jig with wheel hub in place on the armature. More to follow, I hope. |

I just had to use the new toy. Turned down some PVC pipe, ala John O., to resemble rims for the OL-8. 2" diameter X 3/8" wide w/40 spoke holes drilled through them. The little white washers will be the wheel hubs when assembled. I got carried away with gizmology making the jig, it didn't have to be anywhere that complicated. |

Oh, By the way: My new toy, big sale (+) 20% discount via Harbor Freight. Spent a week taking it down to the nuts & bolts, cleaning all of the ucky red grease out of it and setting it up. I'm gonna have a good time with this one. |

Hope that you are all having a good summer. Just finished restoring the orange glider but need to have time to sit in it. |

Hi All! Had a rainy day so no landscaping or mowing. Covered the bottom of the Main Flaot with 1/16" basswood and sanded fair. I'm still trying to figure out the L.G and wheel wells before covering teh rest of the float and moving on. |

Hey Don!! Check this one out. |

| Don C: It is one of those OLFA rotary cutter "self-healing" mats that quilters use, so yes you can do some heavy duty cutting on it. I picked it up on a garage sale for next to nothing. I have had it for quite a few years and it stands up well. |

| This build entices me to make some summer saw dust! |
| Don C, Comment for image # 34123 | 27 May 15 15:17 |
| What is the green mat? Can you cut on it? I've been looking for one that big. |
| rayl, Comment for image # 34123 | 27 May 15 09:03 |
| John, rulers and pencils: I can never find the one I just laid down, so I always have spares available. Thanks, I love my shop also. |
