Thanks Ray. She's back working on limited duty. Taking physical therapy twice a week. No more brace. Nothing on it. But she just mentioned it was hurting this morning. Could be the three inches of snow we got last night. But her recovery is coming right along. The last dr visit he said she had surpassed his expectations for her. So I'm really proud of the old girl.

Guys I've finished the drum sander. It works great and I use it more then any other tool I own. Dust control isn't 100% but about 97 or 98 %. I've been meaning to update everyone on its progress but you know how it it. Lol. In order to take pictures I have to pull it out of its spot. I'm so limited on space that I have to wedge things together. Let me take a picture I'll post it.

Hope this works. This is the back. We used a small piece of thin aluminum to keep the cloth from sucking into the vac

Ok this is an overhead shot of the back. You can see a little dust has escaped. But all in all I think my friend Randell and I did a good job on it. Yes a little dust escapes. But very minimal. We have taken all safety precautions. Belt covers,dust control etc. Hope this photo posts. Today is the day all the Bonnaroo concert goers leave for home. Whew! Maybe this little town can get back to normal. I get to feel how the residents of Woodstock must have felt. Not full on 100 per cent but real close. Anyway their gone until the second week of June next year.

Were not up to par on our wireless power yet. Still to many concert goers in the area. Verizon(my provider)turns the cell towers towards the concert to better serve the 130,000 folks standing out in the mud listening to Elton John. During the day we can't use our computers or phones. No texts. We can get incoming emails but can't read them as the server will time out. If you want to know what frustration is use a smart phone for three years then suddenly have it taken away from you for a week. I'm nearly 70 years old so I didn't grow up with this Techknowledgy. But I have it now, I love it and am hooked on it and when it's taken away I want to kill someone. At least I can respond to this thread. Haven't been able to for the last week.
