    What I've been up to lately...lets see.My life has been a bit ofa train wreck for the last few weeks, personal stuff but I'm getting back to normal.
    I have spent some time in the shop whittling metal into interesting shapes. I made meat tenderizers for my feet.

    A good buddy found me a cool old metalflake green shifter for a roadranger 15 speed that I made to fit my signal arm...it matches my steering wheel perfect!

    I made a tall swan neck shifter on the lathe with a lucky 13 from a pool ball for a detent ****on

    I'm Impressed! Well done! I like the turn signal knob that matches the wheel.
    By the way, does Kamloops still have a refinery on one end of town and a paper mill on the other end as I recall from the early Januray mornings when I used to call on the mines many noons ago?
