Well, I guess I'll start by saying my spelling sucks. Now that we have that out of the way, my name is Don Simons, I live in a small town near Green Bay, Wi., I am 52, retired two years ago, and am not allowed in the house before 5pm.
I currently own my second LT40 Woodmizer and enjoy working on wiered projects. Thus, the reason I joined this site. I spent a few days fumbling thru trying to find stuff and found a huge amount of interesting idea's, topic's, and stories. I am currently in the process of designing an attachment for my Woodmizer that will inable me to turn log's for cabins. I know Woodmizer makes the Lathe Mizer, and they do build quality products, but mine will be quite a step up from that. I can cut all my parts on my CNC plasma table, and would like to know if anyone has toyed with this idea. I always learn alot from mistakes, usually my own.
Since this is my very first post, I don't know where to read any replies, but I'll figure it out....maybe. Let me say that finding this site was a breath of fresh air for me. I really injoy seeing and reading all the great idea's that people come up with, and are nice enough to share with others.
Ti'll we talk (type, I suck at that too!) again, Take care...

Well Duck I mean Donald D, most of us also are challenged when it comes to spelling, but we stick it out there anyway. :D
Welcome to the forum.
You are near that great town with the Packers, eh? I like the Packers. Rather, I like Green Bay for having the Packers.
My little Brother, Charlie, lives in New Richmond. He and I visited a cheese factory on one of my trips up there. What an experience and worth returning for too. :)
Donald D. Welcome to a wonderful place. We look forward to hearing about you ideas and experiences.
You gotta be a Packer fan right? That being
said I know you appreciate us loaning you Brett Farve.
I don't know how he put up with the cold that long. The cold has obviously affected
his decision making. ;) :D Or lack thereof.
Hi fishpharmer,
I'm sorry to say I am not a packer fan. I don't follow sports at all. I spend most of my time in my shop. Not that I have anything against sports, I just have so many other things I prefer to do.
I'll let you slide. Since I don't spend alot of time watching sports either.
Now I can't speak for Mr. Tom.
Welcome donald, if you like to tinker, you have come to a good place. Lots of good folks, lots of good ideas. And I see you have a cnc plasma cutter, I"d love to have just a plain plasma torch, have to make do with a chop saw and an old victor torch. Show us some of your projects, we like pics.
greetings fellow cheesehead! another rube goldberg kind of guy. post pics
Hey Duck,
Look forward to having you around 8).
Well I was gonna call him Duck, but I was slow so I'll just call him Don. Welcome to the Forestry Forum Don! We like new guys with cool toys. Can I come over and play? ;D
Welcome to the forum, Donald. It is a easy place to get used too. I would dare say that there isn't a question in the whole world that couldn't be answered right here, wether it was right or wrong. ;D
Don
Welcome! Pull up a stump and have a seat...
