I know what you mean about delays, its hard to be patient. It took longer to get the thing shipped from L.A. to A.L. on a truck then it did to get from NZ to L.A. on the boat.
Then when it finally arrived this is what the crating looked like:

The only packaging left attached to the tracks was a small piece of cardboard with a "fragile" sticker on it. Needless to say I was a little concerned.

The good news is Peterson called me to check on the shipment and said the would replace anything damaged and ship it immediately by air. The better news is that I have not yet found anything to be missing and the only thing damaged was a couple of rubber handle grips.

Now if I can finish framing up my buddies addition, and finish my leanto, and split some more wood, and clean up the yard, I should be able to do some sawing yet this weekend. I should probably try to hit the lake too, with the weather we've had the last couple of days there's got to be some northern ducks that have moved in..... Hmmm looks like I might have to reorganize this list a little.

Good luck with your WM. I think we're both gonna feel a little spoiled after pushing the Alaskan.
