The making of real parts with brass and steel and aluminum. For that matter, any machinable materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have been beating myself (mentally) with the Junque I make with plastic 3D printing. Some things need to be made with plastic. I will certainly keep making plastic parts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Small mechanical things like live steam and gas engines can only be modeled in plastic. Not made operational.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fall season is returning to Texas USA and the weather will cool.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My shop is in an unconditioned attached garage and subject to the extreme air temperatures. Working in a 100 degree shop is unbearable to an old dude like me. I have fans to move the air around. I really need an (air) conditioned workshop. Both for heating and cooling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If I ever move from here, there are certain conditions that will have to be satisfied. A conditioned workspace for the machine shop and a conditioned space for my amateur radio \u201cham shack\u201d. Could be tied together but the radio-electronics area will have to be a separate area or room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pipe dreams for now but dreams are allowed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Where does all the time go? Oh yeah, smokin\u2019 that dream pipe.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Perhaps it is time to return to machine shop activities.
