Guess who got to PLAY TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Fatman]

At my appt this morning the Doc told me I could start playing with my toys a little bit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The new melter never dripped once, lead flowed nice an smooth. Poured minnow, ball with/wo collar, Pony and horse head. Just over 500 total, in about 3 hours then the back stiffened up and had to call it quits.

 

[Ron Don]

Thats good to hear! Glad you got to fire up the new pots!

 

[blt]

Glad it went ok for you, and your back in the saddle.

 

[Nightprowler]

[Baxter1]

Good to hear,that will keep you busy for awhile.

 

[AtticaFish]

Nice pile of lead and glad to hear you were given the green light!

...............but you didn't have to go and pour all that for me on your 1st day back in the saddle.

 

[BucktailJiger]

Good for you !!! Glad to here the news !!!

 

[LedHed]

Yeah - some playing

 

[JSC]

Good Start FM ... Dont over do it

 

[StumpHunter]

Man it's great to hear you are able to pour again. Nice looking jigs you poured like already said take it easy.

 

[Hawnjigs]

Lead in MA - naughty boy! Can you still use those heads out your way?

 

[Jig Man]

Best news I have had so far today. FM.... Nice looking jig heads. Hopefully you can play with scissors soon!!!

Hawn

Don't have to worry about MA don't live there LOL. In Vermont we can still use lead jigs so no problem there. Should have quit at 2 hours, a little stiff today but man it just felt so damned good to pour. And the wife didn't have any problem at all with it!!!! She did keep coming out to check on me though LOL.

On the way home from work tommorrow (or maybe sneak out at lunch) gonna stop at PetSmart and check out some aeriaters (sp) and tubing, and home depot for some more cups for my small fluid bed. After dinner I'll trim the sprues , I can do that sitting watching the tube.

If I can get all that stuff it'll be a coin toss between powder painting some heads OR seeing just how bad the tying skills suck from being out of it so long!!!!! BUT, I know gotta slow down - got three months of winter left at least so plenty of time yet.

 

[LedHed]

It's been awhile but I think I got a pump @ Wal-mart.

Take it slow - like you said "3 months of winter"
