Good for you Eric.  I used to work out but I discovered being lazy was much more rewarding.  If you ever need a good cd to jam out to while working out I would recommend the selection below.

Thanks.  I'll have to edit my post.  I got sidetracked on my tangent.  Retail Denim ~$~ Sheet of plywood or MDF.  I'm just having to choose my power per $ for awhile.

Problem with the scrap wood box is I have no where to put something that big.

Well I didn't build a super huge box... in fact I just had a scrap piece of plywood and some casters lying around and went... "hmm".  I think the inner dimensions of the cart are around 2'x3'

I'll take some pics of the brake this evening, but seriously... just two pieces of angle iron... nothing to see.  About the only advice I can give is if you don't have a drill press or a welder, you aren't making one because it's unlikely you'll be able to drill through the iron.

bumping for pic - is it anything like this?

Pretty sure I posted a pic, but yeah, it's almost exactly like that.  I just used plywood for the clamping block instead of steel.

Why blame  Chance?  He should be a bar that all builders should set their own goals to.  The days of using marble wallpaper to cover our machines is over.  We should all strive to make our machines to the best of our capabilities.  Chance is just a little over the top.

Did you leave your sense of humor back home? Tell her to bring it next time she brings you some Mexican food.

I'm  sorry I didn't hear you over the mountain of this delicious Mexican food my wife makes.   ;D|

If there is a way to bring it to you at Zapcon I'll see what I can do.

Wednesday, for reasons unknown, is cheap chicken day in Houston.  This is what $15 buys you:



Today I had to go back into the belly of the beast (Texas Medical Center) for a meeting and decided to find a conference to crash. 

Four course lunch ensued....



Act like you know, folks.  And always be carrying something.
