    Somedays, baby steps are all we can do. Dumpster diving at work netted several lengths of 20mm shaft for the brake hinge and a custom dolly, maybe guide shaft for the hydraulic press dies. Eight pillow block bearings for the metal brake.

    After work, I attended an emergency house committee meeting for post operations (VFW), lent my prowess with a chainsaw to the sheriff's department clearing a tree from the highway (I cut they cleared) and then fixed an electric pellet smoker for my very dear friend Jill. The auger was locked up because the pellets weren't run out: humidity down South, don't ya know. The second time for it, now maybe she'll listen and run out the darn pellets.

    Baby steps.
