Sycamore67 Posted December 15, 2019 Report Share Posted December 15, 2019 (edited) My new Hegner was supposed to be here yesterday according to the UPS website but no show. Probably show up Monday when I cannot play with it. I get a spinal injection in the morning and not allowed to touch my tools for 24 hours. I have Reindeer to make!!

Foxfold Posted December 15, 2019 Report Share Posted December 15, 2019 Patience my friend, what's 24 hours compared to the years enjoyment of your new saw that's to come ? OCtoolguy and GrampaJim 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meflick Posted December 15, 2019 Report Share Posted December 15, 2019 Sorry to hear your Saw was not delivered. I know how excited you were waiting for it, and how disappointed it was to not get it as expected. Almost like expecting Santa and then him not showing. Hopefully it will indeed show up Monday so you can be ready to go on a Tuesday. Look at it this way - at least your injection is scheduled for the morning rather than the late afternoon - that way you aren’t blowing two days. Hope the spinal injection goes well and helps with your issues. OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrappile Posted December 15, 2019 Report Share Posted December 15, 2019 I know how you feel. I have a router lift that was suppose to arrive at my post office yesterday. Delivered by UPS SurePost. I received a message late in the afternoon "Unfortunately, UPS SurePost couldn’t complete your delivery because no one was available to sign for it". Ya right, the main post office in our area and no body around in the middle of the afternoon..... This is the second time this has happened. They need to work this out. It is a bogus message, really telling me they are behind on deliveries and skipping this one will help catch up... That I understand, but I hate to be lied to. stoney, scrollingforsanity and OCtoolguy 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rockytime Posted December 15, 2019 Report Share Posted December 15, 2019 I'm more concerned about the spinal injection I hope it goes well. Hope the saw comes soon too,. RabidAlien and OCtoolguy 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCtoolguy Posted December 15, 2019 Report Share Posted December 15, 2019 I'm really sorry to hear your saw didn't arrive but I'm even more sorry to hear about your spinal problems and the injection. I hope it all goes well and the discomfort is minimal. Lots of time to play with your new toy once you are feeling better. Prayers for you.

kmmcrafts Posted December 15, 2019 Report Share Posted December 15, 2019 I know how that is... My Hawk took 4 months.. LOL Best of luck with the injection.. My wife had steroid injections in her back for a period of time.. OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sycamore67 Posted December 16, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2019 My new Hegner arrives and blooms great with no dings, gouges or damage. Unfortunately, I can just look at the box as I can not do anything for 24 hours. Had multiple shots in lumbar spine today I have had them before to help reduce back lain.

teachnlearn Posted December 17, 2019 Report Share Posted December 17, 2019 If you run out of wood try some new materials. Make a figure out of an ice cube, Cut paper plate into clever figure shapes for up scale serving, Take pieces of drywall out and cut in custom patterns, then the drywall can be put back in for a one of a kind wall. Cut cucumbers into whole new shapes for salads. Just think of the patterns you could make taking up the hardwood floor and laying it back down!

Sycamore67 Posted December 17, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2019 I have several hundred board feet of wood in my inventory including domestics and exotics. I resaw thicker wood to get thinner woods and then run thru a planer or sander for some projects. I will not be running out of wood.

Rolf Posted December 18, 2019 Report Share Posted December 18, 2019 Did you get the stand with it? Is this your first Hegner? It is a great saw. Most of our senior members had them when I joined the club years ago. I was a rebel when I bought my Hawk. OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
