I own 9 whitney punches.
Paid anywhere from $3.00 to $150.00
each. 4 ten ton, 4 twenty ton, 1 forty ton.
Worth fighting over.
I can punch a screw hole faster than I can find the chuck key to change the
drill bits.
The 20 ton will punch 1/2" hole in 1/2 " plate cold.
Love 'em.

Could be worse. I could be rebuilding a walker or electric scooter. <grin>

McCormick/Farmall red to keep the tractor colors theme intact?

Nope. Solves that problem.

Like the first breath from a baby.

Bed of nails, you say? Nah, just muscle spasm from too much bending
over. Feeling good today.
Second coat of paint on the fenders and most of the frame. Tongue and
supporting A-frame to go.
Picked up a Roper-Whitney hand punch with complete set of punch and dies
(1/8" thru 5/16") for the tailgaters to fight over, plus a Lincoln 225AC
welder. The quest continues. Lots of small regulators of different
styles, all top quality. Can anybody say "gas forge"?
