Have you got any new projects started lately?
Bill
Actually no Bill and really no excuse for not having started one this year. I do have all the material for the Waller Table top engine and need to get myself motivated and get after it. Spring is here and yard things are taking over but I really need to get back to my shop.

Don

Don...........I just googled "Waller Table Top Engine". What a nice looking engine! Looking forward to your build thread....hint.....hint!  :naughty:

Bill, if I may, Don, Dog get yo butt off the dance floor and back in the shop more. We need to see some shiny brass. You can split up the gym and dance floor time with a little shop time for us bud, just saying: you can have your thread back now Bill.

No progress to report yet, but still very much an active project. My wife has been in the hospital this past week and between that and minding the dogs and trying to get some day job things done, there just hasn't been any shop time left. Fortunately she was released today and is doing well so things should return to relative normality soon and I will post some progress as it happens.

Thanks Bob, I am anxious to get back on it. You and Dave are keeping me motivated, just need the time. Between my little green "bucket" and my scarcity, the gremlins are feeling positively abandoned :)
