The lowly Streamline/Saturn/Comfort sells a lot for me. A look in the display and spare boxes said get to work on the acrylics. This group of 20 will help.

Snow outside with inches to feet predicted so I'm getting work in where I can. Muck boots helped get to the shop.

Happy turnings and stay warm.

Haven't seen your shop but that fireplace looks a lot more inviting!!!!!!! 😂🤣
 
Painted the inside of the tubes. I know some of you use other methods, I like Testor's model paint. I spray the tubes matte white. It works for me every time.

I'm curious - how far away is the nozzle when you do this? I assume you'd need some distance to prevent it from running? And a 24 hour dry time?

I spray from 6-12". I let everything dry for 24 hours.

They say a blizzard is coming. It has snowed several times this storm. Some quietly saw the storms will temporarily end our drought, I'm hoping.

I can reach my shop, it's dry and warm inside and I'm getting things done. Yippee

We are on vacation in central OR. Decent amount of snow, and I probably have 10 packages of blanks, parts, and a solid state switch for my drill press waiting for me when I get home.
 
It's here and more is predicted. I got some of the driveway to my shop plowed. The driveway pad outside our garage is clear. We just looked at the pretty snow when we first moved here. Several days later is was solid ICE.
