I have read her your messages over the phone or taken your cards over to her room at Water's Edge Care Center. Not much changed in 2022 except for building a pole barn and buying some land on a swampy lake to merge with our lot (now we have a lake place) to play the Medicaid game for when Shirley's LTC insurance runs out in four years. Hope you survive the snow and can dig yourselves out in Spring. (OK I know a few of you do not not know what snow looks like any more) .

The sucker weights about 70 or more pounds and needs to be lifted up onto the lather bed in just the right fashion to attach. This may take a few hours to avoid any injuries to TWW or the headstock. Once done production will resume with TWW practicing proper social distancing (currently no other humans within one half mile) and wearing PPE. </span></p>TWWhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08904896867411387281noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20379743.post-40786821686487983022021-01-24T07:30:00.005-06:002021-01-24T07:30:58.898-06:00Production currently stopped<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTjiv7A24II4Xp83XgunO18Dw1DYgzEgaZHbBh3VVHnZ9mX0PO3O-J2gi-qr-J7cCEGohJmDwL2q_yHLKV8BNmGZaXbEUpBjHYEq3GqUaNPKT1N2So2k4NNCGgixHM6lU7LOux3w/s1080/lathe.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="810" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTjiv7A24II4Xp83XgunO18Dw1DYgzEgaZHbBh3VVHnZ9mX0PO3O-J2gi-qr-J7cCEGohJmDwL2q_yHLKV8BNmGZaXbEUpBjHYEq3GqUaNPKT1N2So2k4NNCGgixHM6lU7LOux3w/s320/lathe.jpg" /></a></div><br /><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;"> Headstock is up in Duluth getting fixed</span><p></p>TWWhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08904896867411387281noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20379743.post-63981178847568560242020-07-04T11:47:00.005-06:002020-07-04T11:50:15.801-06:00Happy July 4th using the blogger softwaretest for 7/4/2020 at 18:48ZTWWhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08904896867411387281noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20379743.post-31990315040622351422020-07-02T06:17:00.002-06:002020-07-03T12:47:38.998-06:00Production still stymied due to lack of workersThe main worker has 4 cords to move and stack as soon as he gets a new engine on his DR Powerwagon.<br />

While we have fulfilled all of the orders from last season we have a paucity of people who want to place orders but cannot since we are not accepting orders until we learn how much we will have for next year. The oak we are currently processing has a high failure (cracking) rate so we want to be sure we have inventory before we start taking any more orders. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">The oak mentioned above is for creating a series of pricey oak calabash bowls to sell to the rich Norwegian-American tourists from Edina, MN who visit Hayward, WI. We need to get them to spend on our bowls before Elizabeth Warren makes it harder for them to be rich. Stay tuned.</span>TWWhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08904896867411387281noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20379743.post-84443915359919287122019-10-06T18:17:00.003-06:002019-10-06T18:17:32.374-06:00What the competition charges<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">If one of TWWs customers ever gets curious about what the competition charges here is a sample of something from the competition. Is Norfolk Island Pine really that much better than Northwest Wisconsin Red Pine?? </span></div>

This awakened TWW to the obvious: He has been selling organic bowls for nothing rather than cashing in on the organic product scam. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">The problem with drying out wet organic wood instead of wood raised on corporate tree farms is organic wood contains blue bacteria so when they grow in the right conditions the wood turns blue. Wrapping up pine bowls in newspaper and drying them out like woodturners do sometimes provides just the right conditions. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">The question then is how to con the con-able consumer into thinking the blue bowls when finished (shown below in rough state) have more value than boring-looking factory tree farm pine bowls. Calling them organic should do the trick with all respects to PT Barnum.</span><br />
