One story I have never heard before

Dean Jordan, one of our turners had a very interesting story to tell at the club meeting tonight. He went out to his wood pile and selected a big (16 high by 12 or so wide finished turned) piece of oak that had been sitting out for a year or so. It had a bunch of ants coming out of it so he used chemical war fare on them. He proceeded to turn the outside of the piece. As he turned down the outside, he opened up a natural hole in the wood. Some thing came flying out and bounced off his face mask. He continued to turn, but out of the corner of his eye, saw the object that came flying out moving across the floor on its own. It was a mouse! His dog quickly took care of the mouse.

robo hippy

LOL Now that is funny Reed.

That is wild. I mean the story is wild. I guess the mouse was too!

That alone will give me more incentive to wear a Face Shield.......Imagaine a live mouse smacking you right in the kisser...........lol

The dog could have taken its time - the mouse was vortex dizzy for sure. Lathe speed is beyond astronaut G force testing.

i have a metal detector, where do you find used x-ray machine, does the critter have to take their shoes off????

They're not allowed drink bottles or shampoo larger than 4 ounces.

Hilarious. I sure laughed out loud on this.

I bet that was one dizzy mouse!

I found your mouse, the dog didn't get it afterall.

the one animal that Elephant are afraid of is a mouse, dizzy or not dizzy

That's a great story Reed! I've had a few critters fly out of my wood before, but never anything as large as a mouse.

Ha,ha,ha,ha, I better let my lab into the new shop after all.
