    You're off to a really good start! That 661 sure is purdy. Although, I think I'm more jealous of the hookeroon! It's on my Christmas list, I'm hopeful Santa will deliver.

    Was to dark out to cut anything when I got home.
    Was tempted to bring an oak log onto the shop just so I could run it some!

    No plans to start milling.... But if I ran into the right wood I might try it!:banana:
    Yep, 14 foot walnut slabs that I am turning into rustic bookshelves for man cave in the house.
    Hoping to get home before dark so I can fire up the new saw.:sherlock:
