Thanks Mike, they are pretty hard to come by if you
don't go get one outside yourself. Shipping is a
killer, cheaper to buy a truck outside, drive it up and
sell it here than it is to pay a shipper.
There have been a few come up since I started looking
but I never had the disposable cash before. The fellow
I bought it from replaced it with a newer model 50# LG
rebuilt by Sid a few years ago so he didn't sell
because there was a problem, he sold because he had a
better one and no room for two.
He also had the cutest little 100# chambersburg "A"
frame steam hammer. Still in the original packing! It
was a LOT smaller than a utility.
Your rebuild of the Alldays & Onions is currently being
discussed at IFI. They love your friction drive.
Everybody loves the friction drive. <wink>

If it ain't forged
it ain't real.
Wrought iron is.
