You don't need all those finishing touches to give the machine a test with wood!!! But they do look good.

My wife used pruning shears Greg to cut off one of my fingers. She says I lose one every week until you get your "$§%$&%/ processor working so I can build mine.

Bitte, Bitte, Bitte!!!! (Please in German) Typing from the emergency ward with one finger as the other hand is bandaged!!! Soon I will have to use my nose if you don't hurry.
BF you don't realize the way I work. If those finishing touches don't get done now and I take it out and it actually works, they'll never be done. Kind of like the backhoe that I thought I better try before painting. Well rust I guess is a colour.
Oh I do realize. I built a machine to help me shear my sheep. It has two computers and lots of hydraulic functions. I am always wanting to sandblast and paint the machine but first I have to test this or that. So for several years now it waits for a coat of paint.

I have a lot of temporary repairs on things here on the farm that have lasted many many years beyond my time frame to do the permanent fix.

I wouldn't bother - the lanolin from the fleece will protect it Big Grin

Do you have any pictures of this contraption (or better still, video) - I'd like to see it and exactly what it does. I'm picturing a medieval torture rack but I may have watched too many movies as an impressionable teenager!

No you have it about right!

Cool! When it's done you can drive it to BF's so he can get some firewood and avoid further beatings!
Thank you Greg. I am running out of bandage supplies.
