Phil,
You're welcome to drop your plasma cutter at my place (just the little prob of weight & distance...)

I can make....late model lifting rings, hatch catch profiles, toolbox brackets, pioneer tool holders ... now back to the anvil, fire and hammers...

And the 'greening' has begun... Unlike you poor blokes.. Summer is here & painting is a breeze. I did my St*FF SH*T handle about 12 weeks ago.. I will get to enjoy the 'joys' of engine rebuilding shortly..

Default Answer to what I was doing to help Grant

...... we discovered that if you blow across the water jacket opening while adjusting the valves ..... you can hear the air whistling out of the sparkplug holes..... the whistling stops your valve are adjusted dead on......

Grant and I intend to write a book on this latest technique!!!!


....and Phil...... how did you bend that pushrod......?

Default For Guy Vapeur

Guy, I found your "cadeau" about 5 minutes ago. It looks great! So far I am the only one at the barn, but progress is being realized...
