Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant
More for the shop but will be use on the elephant a new set of vee blocks for inspections. Received my new parts and service manual for my 1970 Summit lathe.

Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant
Santa Clause brought the Vee blocks early. Other stuff is still on he way. Between being a good grandpa and going to my granddaughter basketball games, doctor’s appointments, and typical maintenance for transportation and home, Dumbo has had to take a backseat. Life sometimes gets in the way of racing

Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant
I’m trying to finish a car with a full time 3yr old. Some of you may say I have a 3yr old what’s so difficult, but he is one of nine grandchildren along with five great grandchildren.
Sometimes I think I’m too old for this (kids, not the car LOL)

Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant
Our granddaughters bring way more frequent smiles than my race car, but when the car does something good the smiles look the same. Got everything to take oil and turned a test piece. Finish was good and size was predictable. I still need to clean the taper attachment and make a part or two for it. Other than that “Santa Clause has been berry berry good to me”
Y’all have a very Merry Christmas! |

Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant
The microscope I think will be a great addition for reusability of parts. It was real cool looking at used Sparkplugs at the base of the ceramic.

Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant
Spent the last few days in Pensacola Beach Fla. watching high school basketball, the granddaughter’s of course. Different skill levels top to bottom but everyone wants to win and everybody dives for the ball and hussels. It’s fun to watch.
