I made a new friend today. Always good to put a hand shake and a face with someone we visit with on the net.
Pistolero, aka Bill.
Looked at his lathe and he showed me the general basics of the machine. We visited a fair bit and covered a wide variety of subjects.
There was "hijacking" of subjects from both sides,lol. One thing would lead to another of course. We stayed course for the most part, lathes, metal working, outdoors, cast bullets,shooting and hunting. Funny how the first two are connected to the others.
I have met several folks over the years from different forums. All of them have always been great to visit with, cuss and discuss various subjects, and become friends.
My dad always said a man was only granted one good dog in a life time. His wealth should be judged by how many friends he has and nothing monitary.
I am pretty darn lucky on both counts.
Weather was bad here so I didn't get my machinest buddy to come with me. All though we had a mutual friend that had looked it over and visited with him on the subject.
I am pretty sure it has found a new home though. Now to figure exactly where I am going to put it.
Thanks Bill. One of the best mornings I have had for a while.
