Well...another weekend has come and gone, and just think, this was a holiday weekend to boot.!!! I didn't know any difference since I was OnCall during this weekend so it was just "work" for me.
Let's see....Friday night watched an old John Wayne movie with the kids "The Quiet Man". Very good movie and the kids loved it as well. Saturday was spent working a little in the shop as I had time from taking care of pages on the pager and then punching in to work and fixing busted computers, tape libraries that cause our backups to fail.
Sunday was an all day affair for "work" with a little shop time Sunday night. Monday morning, I came off call...!!!!!!! YEA!!!!!! So it was a heavy day in the shop working on the cabinets and to take a break from all that "flat work" I decided to turn a curly maple burl. I just need to get my cole jaws so I can reverse mount it and finish it up (insert "it's still on the lathe here").
I do have a question of those that wear glasses in the shop. What do you do to fix the problem of seeing up close (1.5 feet or less)? The bottom of my glasses allows me to focus fairly close but sometimes you can't crank your head up to look throw the bottom of the glasses while holding a drill, tape and pencil for example.
So....what did YOU do this holiday weekend?
Best of weeks to you all.
