Charlee, Welcome back we missed seeing you in the shop. I looked at your new machine and cabinet and you really did a nice job. Machine and cabinet looks great!

OMG! I remember this now, when you posted this info.
Please, please post a picture! Do you have before and after?
Only afters, my DGD takes better pics than I do. I'll get her to do enough shots of it.

LoL, I have been pondering that since I got her! I have no idea, gonna wait and see how it works.
If it works kinda goofy like it looks(kinda big and clunky looking), I am thinking Dory. Like from Finding Nemo. :lol:

I have one last pic, and I need help here bigtime!

What is this for???

Glenn, you do gorgeous work, also.
