    Thanks again everyone,
    It occurs to me that Valentine's is this coming Wednesday and I have a chunk of purpleheart to make a gift for the LOML, and on top of that I now have to set aside enough time to clear out space for what will become The Mustard Zone.

    Don, I appreciate the offer! I could definitely use the help!

    Hold on there, Mark!

    LOYL approved the purchase of your mustard right before Valentines day and you are going to give her a chunk of wood?

    I think a diamond ring or necklace might be a better choice.
    Be Blessed

    George,
    I think "tolerated" might be closer to reality than "approved."
    And if you only knew how much she loves purple! She's been wanting something made of PH for a long time....she hasn't noticed the 3x6 PH blank sitting under a few pieces of padauk and zebrawood... she would honestly rather have something purple than diamonds!

    Now you need to contact one of the new SawStop owners here at SMC......You can get their saved hot dog and put the mustard to it.....I wonder if you could turn a frozen hot dawg?



    Congrats Mark!

    I sure hope you're going to have a gaggle of helpers back at the shop to assist in getting your mustard off your truck, moved into your shop and set up.
    Be Blessed

    Just had a PM from this Pruitt guy.

    Turns out he's been messing with you all along, and asked that I let in you in on a "development".

    Never ordered that mustard thing after all.

    Took that spare 2436 Mayo instead.

    Ya ever notice that Ken looks foolish after insulting the MOA?

    ummmmph......grrrrrunt...... (sound of me crawling out from under new lathe)...

    Well, sorry for the silence guys but the new Mustard is standing proudly in its new home! I had only limited help getting it off my pickup...you shoulda seen the LOML and me pushing/pulling! Actually I'm glad you didn't see it. I used 1/2" pvc for rollers to get it off the truck, down the ramps and across the floor, removed headstock, tailstock, banjo, rolled it over, mounted the legs, and had a buddy come over after work to help me stand it up. OMG that thing is SOOO heavy!!! (which is of course part of why I wanted it!)

    So, where are the pics? Well, umm, there ain't any yet! I had to knock off and make a trip to visit my MIL, which is where I am now. (She's had some recent health problems and the LOML and I are trying to give her some TLC.) I'll get some pictures up soon....promise!!!

    Oh, and....the new Mustard needs a name! Any ideas?
