    I must say, this is an entertaining thread. Much like a wreck on the side of the highway, it's hard not to look - even if it's a bit morbid at times.

    Hey everyone - can y'all resend everything you've ever emailed me?? I got a new PC and none of those emails are on the new PC.

    .....just wow.

    Quoted from greatwichjohn:

    My wife looks after my needs, no need to jack off at the shop. ... While Avi is at the shop I will refrain from the porn movies during my meal breaks

    Can we all agree we've officially crossed into 'TMI' territory here?

    Quoted from greatwichjohn:

    I will not be talking about rules until sometime in the Fall. Same as no sense getting the programmer involved until the whitewood is finished testing.

    36 days ago:

    Quoted from blueberryjohnson:

    Good to see you're willing to change the plan. Revised timeline for flipping whitewood? Safe to assume Nov 1 is out the window.

    Quoted from greatwichjohn:

    You never know since I have not had a beer in 3 days. Might be flipping balls around with my fingers tonight, when I get back to drinking.

    Quoted from greatwichjohn:

    No flipping playfield until November.

    26 days ago:

    Quoted from greatwichjohn:

    Had a local regular in, & he had a good laugh that the whitewood playfield will be flipping & tested by the end of this month. That is still the plan, & I will be spending my time getting it done.

    14 days ago:

    Quoted from greatwichjohn:

    It might be weeks before I get this flipping.

    12 days ago:

    Quoted from greatwichjohn:

    Try to meet the end of month deadline for a flipping pin.

    8 days ago:

    Quoted from greatwichjohn:

    You forgot who is building this, & it will be lucky to be flipping in days if not weeks.

    2 days ago:

    Quoted from greatwichjohn:

    Hope to have a flipping whitewood this week.

    John, I wish you the best and admire your tenacity, but you're digging your own hole here. Not sure if I should keep 'adding fuel to the fire', but I found a bunch more when searching 'whitewood' vs 'flipping whitewood'.

    Quoted from greatwichjohn:

    I will spend this week getting the parts needed to get get a whitewood going for September 1

    Quoted from greatwichjohn:

    No sense going into anything until the whitewood is tested.

    Quoted from greatwichjohn:

    Jon Norris, a wealth of information. Still going through the BOM list he did to make this build easier to do. To have the parts needed for a working whitewood in September.

    Quoted from greatwichjohn:

    Wait until you see the whitewood next month.

    Quoted from greatwichjohn:

    Back to the project that I can more than manage on my own, & direct the build. Jon Norris is not going to do a boat load of stuff more on this project. After I get the whitewood into testing to see what needs to be tweaked or added on that is it.

    Quoted from greatwichjohn:

    I got some free paneling from a friend that I might use for whitewood testing.

    Quoted from greatwichjohn:

    I spent some time cleaning up the workshop to be ready for September 1. Get ready to use my shit free paneling to test for the whitewood.

    Quoted from greatwichjohn:

    I got to say Ben & the guys thinking the panel mdf is a joke for a whitewood test. That is what I plan to do, & think it will be ok.

    86 days ago:

    Quoted from greatwichjohn:

    No one is in a panic mode, & I should be starting the test whitewood later this week #3.

    78 days ago:

    Quoted from greatwichjohn:

    The real test plywood whitewood will be in October.

    Quoted from greatwichjohn:

    There will be a fully working plywood whitewood tested before the end of October.

    Quoted from greatwichjohn:

    Well the mdf panel I do not consider a true whitewood. The plywood one I will get done with a cnc in October.

    69 days ago:

    Quoted from greatwichjohn:

    Programmer will not start until November. The plan is to have a whitewood cut late October.

    68 days ago:

    Quoted from greatwichjohn:

    It should be a working whitewood before November 1.

    46 days ago:

    Quoted from greatwichjohn:

    Started on the plywood whitewood.

    Quoted from homebrood:

    This is getting redundant. Enough of the judgement and criticism. Pointing out all the missed self-imposed deadlines.

    What's getting redundant ARE the missed, self-imposed deadlines. ...and the off-color meats IMHO.

    #9584 1 year ago

    Ever hear the phrase "it's like watching a train wreck"? You can't help but look. Also, it's a very slow day at work for me.
