[TheForge] More air hammer pics up

Mon May 26 12:58:01 2003

Love the pics Mike.

I've used lumber/timber/anything handy "A" frame rigs so many times it looks
Uptown to me. <grin>

Everything so far looks to be in darned good shape; a little cleaning,
buffing and such should see the old girl up and kicking butt again.

I don't see a machined flat and the square section on the tup isn't long
enough. How is the tup guided?

I just had a thought! (I'll continue once the laughter dies down, thank you.
<grin>) How about audio recording the A&O's first blows in too many years
for posterity and putting it on your page?

it ain't real.
Wrought iron is.
