I awoke at 5 am with grass growing and than an hr later they closed everything and it was total panic. I work at a school Rock On free shop day!!! However I joined the Turners 2 last month and they meet at a school 2nd Thursday of the month YES! that's today but now everything is closed and travel bands! I dont understand I went out to the local hardware 15 mins up the road to get a new light for the shop and it only took 4 hrs and pulling pushing towing out 8 cars later I am home now wet and cold but happy to of helped out some people in need and have some rush at the same time! But please tell me why the meeting didn't happen turners should be able to drive in anything!!!!

well its just not right this was really my first meeting because last month was the auction although I picked up a trimmer for $4.00 and met people that new what a skew was and also enjoyed talking about them unlike the people I see daily. There was not any turning. I would have made it I drover all over towing people out would have been nice to take a break at the meeting. I just don't see why a few hrs of snow shut them down? This is western ny!!!
 
I can't say that i blame them. That stuff looks over knee deep... I wouldnt want to leave my BED, let alone my house! lol.
 
sorry about the meeting -- but looks like a good shop light. Those provide good background light, but I find having a couple of the long armed snake lights over the turning makes a lot of difference. Putting one behind the turning at "finish time" helps avoid misses and scratches.

Don't encourage this.. knee deep is nothing plus it gave me a snow day for some free shop time. Ron you need to come visit here and than go up north this is nothing here. knee deep is right but I am only 5'7"

KenV: thanks for the tip. this light will go right over the new lathe that comes with a small snake light attached to it. More light the better I say.
 
Hey,
What is that stuff your standing in? Oh I forgot what it really looked like. All's I remember was that it was yellow in color. Dang huskies.
 
I'm sure I'm not the only one, but from reading your previous posts and the things and challenges you seem to get up to, then I must say that you have bigger cahoonies than most of your male counterparts!!!:eek::biggrin:

My kinda woman!!!:biggrin:
 
Karin you just need to orginize the "Snow Taxi" That way you will always be sure your turning night wont be cancelled ...you go get the teacher!!!!
 
I would of picked up the whole crew but the building closed up too. qeeezzzz this is crazy a tad bit of snow and to think its winter no. I believe it did not scare some old moldmaker from from driving up to my shop or rather down to my shop in this case.
 
no .. didn't scare him off, he's packing now and trying to remember things to
turn off before leaving ..
coffee maker .. check.
alarm clock .. check
 
It's snowing to beat the band, here.

Jerry, that's not quite right. They do have two seasons, but it's
11 months of winter and six weeks of pretty poor sledding.
You should know this. :tongue:
 
Yes, that's the way I remember it back when I lived in Rochester. Look outside and see the ground. Two hours later you can't even see the roof rack on your mini-van. I still get to see a bit of snow once or twice a year here in North Georgia, but an inch shuts the whole town down.

I can remember my dad getting stranded on 95 in Georgia when they had
a cold snap. It was about 10 degrees and he couldn't get a tow truck to
come and get him on Rt 95 .. he was in a fire truck, pretty hard to miss.
He spent 18 hours on the side of the road.
