I have gotten everything out of the room and put the workbench in. I have installed a couple of wall mounted utility storage units. I seem to have lost my tall stools, though, so I really can't tell if I have the desk where I want it or where I will want to set up the reloader on the desk. The possibilities regarding space, requirements, and wants with regards to placement are extensive. I would guess there is more than one good answer or even excellent solution. However, without something to sit on and a bit more checking using the parts and a dry setup, I am simply guessing where everything not only could but more should go.
What I need to do next is to find a tall, adjustable, work stool. I am thinking something along the lines of those padded steel stools I remember from wood shop classes. Until I get one, doing more actual work setting things up is unwise. Tomorrow will see me buying one of those. I will do some prep work though yet tonight. I will be reviewing the instructions for putting the main machine together. I have taken the mounting pieces, a separate and "deluxe" component, into the room. The actual reloader is a minor engineering marvel, but one of the good parts of the design was a relatively reasonable means of constructing it and using it. I did purchase a replacement component package, so if I mess up I will not have a long wait for a replacement piece. I am more sure about this part of the process than what I have done to date.
Amazing! I am actually getting to things. I have had to move slowly, more so today, due to losing my breath from carrying even a moderate load and a lot of what I was doing dealt with moving moderate loads. I almost started to wonder if I would ever get to any of this or if it would all pile up and I would die with a bunch of unopened boxes, unused tools, and plans all over the place. I really started to wonder if I could even move. Here I am, barely able to breath, getting it done. Amazing!
On to some reading and perhaps playing with knots. I am so hungry though too. My kitchen has been a mess since before I began working on the bench in it, and now has both the old mess and the new mess. No cooking is possible until I finish installing and getting the reloader working, as doing that requires about everything I have. So, I might have to go through a drive-through or order a pizza for pick-up. I haven't had a pizza in a very long time and that would be enough food for a couple of days. It is Sunday, so I would guess only Dominoes or worse would be open. Ah well. At least a pizza would provide a couple days of meals.
Did you hear the news, they finally got that sonofabitch osama. Hats off to those soldiers, they have all our thanks. I’m celebrating today. Well done and thank you America, it is a great day for the west.
ReplyDeleteYes, I did just before I read your comment. I have to say though, I am displeased with the reactions I have seen on television as well as having some... doubts about the timing.
ReplyDeleteWhile I am pleased the deed is done, I wonder why it was not done before. As I suspected, he was in Pakistan. Given the idiocy of this president, and his difficult political situation, it would not surprise me to eventually find out we knew where Osama was, but were using him in order to intercept his communiques, thus stay ahead of attacks. Then to find out that Obama had him killed anyway (or perhaps precisely to undo our intelligence community).
And more, the celebrating is beyond wrong. While I would have no difficulty killing even a two legged rabid dog, I would not celebrate such a thing. If anything, we should mourn that some men are so warped that they can't be allowed to live. Further, as a fighter, I have liked my enemies far more than I have ever liked the type of cowardly fool who is celebrating in Time Square. I myself would not kill them though, unlike my enemies. I find them unworthy of my efforts, little as those would be, among other reasons.
Don't worry too much, just in a dark mood of late on such matters.
