Adjam5 Posted February 26, 2010 Report Share Posted February 26, 2010 Skippin work today due to the BIG storm we had here and are still having. It took me over 2 hours last night to make what is usually a 40 minute drive from the city to get home. My foreman said it was no biggie, already called him and he said the calls are pouring in with who also is not coming in today. Our job is going for the TCO(temp. certificate of occupancy) for the 35 story west bldg on Monday, so I imagine it will be crazy when I get back on Monday. Betcha we got close to 14" so far with more on the way with nasty wind creating monster drifts and knocking limbs down off trees. The bird feeder in the yard collapsed from the weight of the snow on it:(. My 3 boys warmed my heart last night by shoveling out the widow across the street from us driveway/walkway. They will do it again, because the EVIL plow guy fills everyones driveway back in almost instantaneously after you clear it out! Must be a conspiracy. I picture the plow guy as a EVIL clown laughing crazily as he does it. Yes...I know...I have a good imagination Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adjam5 Posted February 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2010 (edited) Man - I don't envy you guys at all! I will be forging up some Mokume Gane today. Going to use Platinum for the first time in my mix. Learned something new today. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mokume-gane Thanks Ross! Platinum huh? Mucho expensive I would imagine. Would love to see your finished product. Hey, we might have some small pieces of copper bus bar at work 1/4" thick that we use for heavy electrical connections. Let me see what we have when I get back there on Monday. If we have some left I'll get a knife sized piece(s) and send it off to you .

Larry Posted February 26, 2010 Report Share Posted February 26, 2010 That ring is extremely unique, you really did an awesome job. I wish I would have seen that about a year ago when I bought my wifes engagement ring. Do you have a web site to show your work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaun_300 Posted February 26, 2010 Report Share Posted February 26, 2010 That's quite a bit! We got 8 inches up here of the wet sticky stuff. Wasn't fun to shovel! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adjam5 Posted February 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2010 This is why I stayed home. A peek out the back door. The backyard Out the front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
