Thanks guys! Ed I am right behind you at 45! I figured it would be easy to set up because my original thought was to come in from above but that did not work with my choice of light and fixture. I think I will shoot for a combination of the overhead lighting and some sort of swing arm as well...

OK dogs, I am having trouble lighting my grinder area. I bought a worklight, the aluminum ufo looking lights and hung it above my grinder with a Halogen bulb thinking it would be bright right over my grinding area. This has not worked out at all, I have to lower it too far to get good light and...

I'm in! Thanks!

Thanks Bluegrass! That is hilarious!! I don't have a name for her yet, I'll have to think about that!!

If I do go it will probably be Saturday. If you go on Saturday, let me know.

Hey BJ! I told you brother! 2 weeks for you? I know exactly how you feel!! I felt great just knowing it was on the way!

I am hoping to go to the show in Pasadena. I was thinking about taking my son with me, not for sure yet. I went last year during one of my "OK days", it was fun. Are you going this year?

Thank you guys! Sorry about that taxman Chris!! I was shocked because I never get anything back!! I only worked half a year last year because I was sick,....it all worked out in the end! As far as accessories go I got the 10" wheel and of course the flat platen. I got the small wheel attachment...

Well, after a long battle with Diverticulitis, 7 months of testing and painkillers (Percocet) 5-8 times a day, and finally Colon surgery about 9 months ago:eek::eek:. I am now fully healed and am now the proud owner of a new KMG! My tax return was a little better than I was expecting (I guess...

Congratulations!! I just received my KMG a few days ago!! Rob was about 2 weeks from order to ship. I will post some pics on another thread tonight if I can figure it out. I know exactly how you feel!! I was there 2 weeks ago!! Enjoy! Jerry

Congratulations Josh!! Enjoy!!

Happy Birthday Ed!!!

Thanks Kelly, I will get some Cobalt bits and will not drill a pilot hole. Thanks for the advice. Do you just drill your holes or do you chamfer them as well? Jerry

By the way Boss, I bought that new knifemaker's vise last week from you and that thing is built like a tank!!

I tried to drill a small pilot hole first and it worked for the first hole then broke on the second hole. The second bit did the same thing. I think they are some Harbor Freight drills or something!! :eek:

Hey Dogs! OK so after breaking 2 bits that I had today while trying to drill my handle pin holes in some O1 at 300 RPM, I need to buy some new bits. What kind of bits should I buy and do you guys use a chucked reamer after you drill? Do you countersink the holes as well so you don't have any...

Wobble is not your friend! I hope your new one is good!

I was going to buy a bench model but I don't have much bench left so this one is a 15" floor model. The reviews are pretty good, #3 best drill press under $500.00 etc.

The cool thing was that it's not like I went in with an ad price or something like that< I just took in a print out of a forum where guys were talking about trying to get the drill press for 149.95, some did and some didn't get the price but it worked for me. I feel like I got a great deal...

Sorry guys, I think I posted this in the wrong area. I won't be upset it you remove it!!
