This beauty fell to grace from Santa's sleigh last Christmas Eve. Landing in my yard I knew not what to do with it, but living in the desert made the decision easy...best looking yard ornament with lights in Las Vegas!!! And then he talked to me, yes, I know old arn talks to us all, but he really called me. He said, how about the 12 arns of Christmas, and I said what? He replied, the 12 best restorations and pictures of old arn, selected by the OWWM, and put into a calendar, the ARN of 2007. Think of the excitment, the rushing to the computer, to see which machine from all the nominations for best Bandsaw is shown, and we all get to vote on which one will make a month. Will it be a Snowflake, or a craftsman, and which lucky member can take pride in saying, "That old arn that graces the month of August is mine!!!" Think of all the catagories we can argue over, best type of machine, best retro, most original paint, and the OWWM should be able to make them quick, sell them at a profit, and we all would have something to argue about, think about, and vote for. Heck, I know an old Barnes arn who thinks he is Mr. December. Get on it, I am too old and tired, but I will vote and buy one.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year
