Time for another potpourri thread?

As of this morning the stimulus money is in my account.

Same here. Haven't heard from our sons, yet. They and their spouses are in "essential" jobs, though. We'll check with them this evening.

The rest of my family have all received theirs but I have not. I pay taxes every year (by my design) so my stimulus check should come to me as a SSA beneficiary. I found a chart this morning that indicates these checks will be distributed over time with lower incomes receiving theirs first. I now expect mine in mid May.

Found this on the floor this morning. Where do you suppose it goes and what will fail at the most inappropriate time?

I had the same thing happen about 15 years ago with my then 510. I never did find where it came from and the machine has since been upgraded to a 520 and then Power Pro MK7. I still have the set screw in a pill bottle by itself. I never had any issues with the machine after finding the set screw on the floor.

I think I would be looking at a lock collar.

The offset for the rip fence?

Think this pair got lost along the way. Or perhaps they are just resting up before going farther north? Anyway not some thing that is common where I live.

Interesting little bit from the Hemmings Classic Car magazine recent issue.
Does this Ford part remind you of one end of a Shopsmith?

Yes number 7. Finished it yesterday and let the glue dry overnight. Now I have to clear a spot to put it and move it in place.

I think this is the last one or at least the last one for a while. Made a mess of the shop doing all the moving about but I think it is much better with these additions.

I thought I was running low on the screws I use for these and wondered if I would have enough. Made it with one to spare!

My latest project, A place to store our Blue Box recycle bins.

At some point I will make doors, hopefully by next winter.

The frame is 2x4's put together with tenons and dadoes, cut with my wobble dado blade on the 10ER and then screwed together, and covered with western red cedar siding (short ends that were being discarded) that our tenants rescued and brought home.
