Thank you. [Tips hat]

Ten years, off and on.  It's beens sitting there for 11, operational
since 2008 but problematic.  Made a long-heat portable forge 2 or 3
years ago, jib crane last year.

Yeah. It may even turn to have been more fun ressurecting it than it
is using it.

Now I just have to dig up old sketches and projects from the midden
and see what I might do with it. The biggest stock I have on hand is
1x2, 1-1/2 square and 2" round.  With 300#, you have to be carefull
not to squash such rinky-dink sizes into sheet metal with an errant
blow. :-)

With computer & data security getting a lot of press and "delete"
being what it is, I'm wondering if I could do GORD [1] on old hard
drives for a fee. :-o  No need for a special tiny screw driver.
