Geez fellows, I didn't expect to see this at the top again.
Trout, Having relied on my eyes for my work and hobby over the years I had some scary moments a short while back. I had some flashes and black specs floating around in one eye so I quickly jumped onto the internet to see what it was all about. Finding that if it didn't progress from that stage it wasn't a big worry but within a week I started getting 'floaters' so I went to an eye specialist. After a couple of tests it was determined that I didn't have retinal detachment but rather vitriol detachment. He said it comes with age and as long as everything doesn't get cloudy it also wasn't a great concern. Shortly after I started getting 'floaters' in my other eye. Ah the joys of getting old! So far it hasn't affected my art or machining but it's kind of spooky when you go through most of your life never giving much thought to how valuable your eyes are.
As usual, thanks fellows for the gracious comments.

The quality of the work that you do, no matter what the project, is second to none. As a result it will always rise to the top, which is where it deserves to be. Keep on having fun George and take care of those eyes.
