[TheForge] Sodium filled valves

[Ron Childers]

General Lee, my cousin's ornery ole mule could snake everything out by
himself. Rocky Joe, my Morgan horse could do it also.

I found a cast away table saw which wouldn't even hum when I took it home
and plugged it in. That was a good sign it wasn't getting power so all I had
to do was clean the connections. Same with the 75' 3-12 extension cord in
the same place. (Mud daubers). On a more vain-glorious note, my buddy found
a 260# Fisher with a couple of minor torch cuts. It was cast out in the
scrap pile @ a big mill and they just gave it to him. He is a weldor by
trade, so no problem repairing it.

How about a walking beam Bradley power hammer in the weeds @ a water tank 
company here in town. Sold it to a Bull Pin maker in Ala.  Also a 12' X 12' 
Acorn table (made up of four 6X6 ) w/ frame (also cast) that got away for 
scrap (I could have had it free).
Somewhere in Mich. peninsular, at the end of a logging rail line(defunct) is

an 8" post vise and 500#+ anvil. But there is NO access. Thinking helo or 
mule team.
