I rolled out late, my 12 year old has been rolling my butt out before daylight to go jogging. He's on this health kick and wants some company on the dark dreary dangerous road to health. Good Morning.

Good morning to you all. 8am here and it doesn't look like I'm gonna see the sun this morning, maybe this afternoon. I'm doing the same dirty deed Matt is doing, cleaning the shop. Have a great day and post pics. John

Good afternoon!

Top of the Marning tu ya,
Wow, a cold snap here in South Carolina ... it's 44 degrees at noon. I'm outside using the belt sander to shape a neck & it's a bit brisk. For the last two weeks it's been in the seventies as daytime highs. The trade-off is that the humidity is high all the time. Back to work on that neck.

It was 40 degrees in my shop this a.m. That's not too good a morn, is it?
By the way---how does one (any one) make those cute little circles that mean degrees after the number? I know this was a discussion once, but I've lost that info.
Thanks, Steve

Which is a meer -32.8?F. You crazy metric folks always think you have it worse than you really do.
Ok,you still have it worse than we do, -14?F tonight.
The doorknob of my shop is frozen in the open position right now. I shot it with door lock spray but no dice. I think the 58? and 47%RH inside didn't like the -10? and 10%Rh outside and made some condensation inside the lock. We'll hope burglers are smarter than coming out when it's this cold.

[QUOTE=Pwoolson] Which is a meer -32.8?F. You crazy metric folks always think you have it worse than you really do. [/QUOTE]

well, it looks worse for us until -40, then metirc looks better <g> 3 weeks ago, we hit -47?c, which is -53?f.

Works both ways, and cold in any darned language!

You have a shop full of lock de-icer. Alcohol! Instead of paying the King's ransom for lock de-icer($2 for one oz. of alcohol!), just put some denatured alky in a small squeeze bottle(my ever favorite hair color bottles work great for this), and shoot a few oz. in there. Use a syringe if you have to. Then follow that with some spray oil to displace any moisture left behind.

Hey! How did this thing censor me? I wrote "cold in any d-a-m-n-e-d language", and it turned it into "darned". What's wrong with "dam" as a word? Does hell come out as heck(about to see...)

I don't think language control is needed, nor very nice.Mario38367.8678240741

An alternative method to Mario's is hold down the Alt key and type 248 on the numeric keypad (°). Hey, what can I say, I'm lazy
