     Awesome, do you share a shop with your dad ?  If you do I think that is great to be able to work with your dad.

We don't work together, Just share his home garage for mechanic-in.  His garage is setup for working on mechanical stuff, and my garage is setup as the  woodworking shop.  I'm chipping in because If I do, he can get a better one than he originally planned, and I use it more than he does anyway  ;D

I do all my major automotive work in his garage, He's got the good stuff after being a mechanic for 30 years, and he has a concrete pad outside his garage...  I HATE working on nuts and bolts on gravel.  So we do woodworking stuff in my garage.

     Well that is still cool that you two can share between the two garages, a lot of us don't live close enough or have our dad's around anymore.

My dads in the next house over, I can see in their window from my house.   ;D   I'm enjoying my parents all I can, it's gonna be real crappy one day when they're gone...  I appreciate them... a LOT.

Ordered the compressor yesterday, ought to have it in 3 or 4 weeks time.  First thing I'm gonna do with it is sharpen the mower blades with the Big Air grinder..   The compressor we have now won't run it more than a minute at a time, and then you had to wait 4 minutes or so for it to catch up and cool off.   This new comp is rated for continuous duty...  26CFM at 100PSI, and we gonna use it.  After this next thing is a sand blast cabinet.  I was so hoping to get this before I put an engine in the truck.  Now I just need to get a sandblast cabinet, then i wanna do the engine.

Broke a dang tooth last night, so I may get the fans this week or at least next week.  I hate teeth, why does a tooth need a big ol nerve in it?  Teeth suck.
