45 going on 21, like the rest of ya 😀 😀 😀 😀
Married, no kids, not that I can’t 😯 lets not go there.
Misses SAW and I have been looking for a house lately, what a pain in the ass, I signed so many forms I never want to see one again.
Any way, recently acquired my General Contractors lic., well 3 years ago.
Things are good, hooked up with a builder that does super custom homes almost always on the Strand [at the beach].
I do the finish work as well as general pick up framing.
These houses go for about 12 – 16 Mil.
😯 😯 😯
The dirt cost around 6-8 Mil.
Back to the subject, a real passion for wood 8)
I love my job, pellet guns, fine wine and beer.
And macrakin, no I am not anti-social, I just don’t like most people

37 yo married with a 5 yo girl i am a graphic designer and have a screen printing business spend most of the time at home and no social life.
52 going on 18. Married, two daughters raised and gone. Have a Lassie type collie named Bearzy, we call him Bear dog. He’s smarter than most humans. I have done it all, auto mechanics, construction, painting, roofing, sewing, crafts, woodworking, butcher, grocery packer, paperboy, welding, etc, etc. Worked at oil Refinery for 32 years. Operations supervisor. I have a real passion for distilling any type of hydrocarbon. One time in my career I was a #1 Dubbs operator making Petroleum Pitch that Riff Raff eventually used to make Carbon Fibers. Back then that shit was top secret, they were making stealth fighter/bombers out of it. I have always been into pellet rifles. As a kid we went hunting everyday with either a bb gun or if lucky a 177 cal cheap ass springer. I remember shooting pigeons off the church steeples. They would look over the edge and we’d shoot em in the head. They drop like a potato and flop.

58, Instrument tech. Sending 2 girls to college. One for the third year, one for the first. Don;t have the time I want or the money I need, but still find some for Airforce related items.
Just hit the big 5-0 this year. Work with WOK and Tron fluffing. But only real stars, none of the wannabes. Once they get me, they can’t go back to Tron anymore. Wok is so-so.
2 kids, 11 and 7. or 7-11.
Been on lathes since 13, all manual. None of this CNC crap for me. Just got the lil X3 mill and losing my pants in tooling for it. Trying to convince someone I know to sell me his Bridgeport Series I.
Reformed Honda brat. Reformed production roadracer (2 stroke). Reformed dirt biker. Used to be a commercial fisherman. Still love to hunt, but not much time left after kids and forum browsing. Future reformed Talon forum member.

50 as of 08/08/09, married with three kids.
Master Electrician and Instrument Mechanic work in the oil and gas production side of things. Currently a one man contractor doing oilpatch maintenance.
Do job shop machining at home when not out doing my regular gig. Came up with a KISS principle control valve that I build and sell fairly successfully. Been a good go 🙂
Discovered airguns about 20 years ago now and the love has not diminished one iota. Building PCP conversions for the use of CO2 guns in the cold north got me really cranked up. Then somewhere along the line I discovered the Talon info site with the patent drawings posted……
Had to have one….. could not afford one….. so I built one!
Survived the Yellow talon shutdown, TOG demise and brought my grumpiness over to this place 🙂
My machines include a 9×24 lathe, 20×80 lathe, 10×50 knee mill, 8×24 horizontal mill, 24″ shaper and all the supporting tooling and attachments I can find. Still wanting a Bridgeport slotting attachment and the time to get my old shaper restored.
Ride a CRF450X with my son and really enjoy hare scrambles. Was a 5th place cross country bigbore rider back in the day. (in my province 1983?)
Drive my ’79 Camaro when I get a chance 🙂
Cheers,
Walter…..
