The way I took it, the man made the purchase, said nothing to wife, it showed up at the door before he got home, and Mr Reaper is saving him the time of having to deal with his wife and the shotgun awaiting him, cuz he used the money that was meant for their newborn babies room remodel, but in his mind he was justifying the cost of the Shopsmith by not having to hire a contractor now! But she don't see it that way. She is not looking ahead to all the wonderful projects that he is going to maker for her after he remodels the babies room!

Not for lack of skill, just time management. Took him 9 forever's and a month of Sundays to get things done. These days he calls me and asks about making stuff.

February 17, 20206 yr Hey my wife gave up on asking me when. By the way there are those times she says something and that little light goes on in my head. When I bring it in from the shop she says she was just talking. Can't get ahead for getting behind.
