Thread: What are you working on?

I'm currently in Arizona enjoying the 95 degree weather. Another vaca with the fam before the real cold sets in back home. Last winter was a doozie, and I'm hoping we don't get anymore ice storms this season. I can keep most of my body warm and comfortable all season but it's my hands man!!! No matter what I do they always get cold.

I know I'd ferkin' explode after 15 minutes where you are...I can't stand hot weather like that.

Have you ever spent any time, like a week or a couple of days, in any extreme cold weather, where it can sink right down into your bones?

I know you like fishing, would be great to have you up to my buddies cottage in St. Sault Marie during February for some ice fishing, nothing like it! When you get into extreme cold like that, it becomes almost surreal...nothing like the night sky up North like that.

To give you an idea of the distance, it's about 10 hours by car from Toronto to SSM, to get to Thunder Bay where BobH is, add another 10 hours, so almost a full day driving to get that far North...simply gorgeous up there. Time just seems to disappear for me when up there.....

Did it involve a small blacked out speed boat crossing from Ketchikan into the Dixon Entrance?

Amnesty brother, or a waiver. Even Keith Richards was allowed back in after filling out a few forms.
I was turned back going the other way years back for legal, umm, anomalies..went through the system years later to purge my sins and am good to go again..

Now, to drift back on topic, I went in to work a few hrs today and glad I did. This was waiting for me from McMaster Carr.

So aside from polishing steel, I also have a few strips of wood to see if I can make some scales out of.

Cheers.
