  1. I'm moving Das so I can't take to much extra stuff. That rail needs to find a new user. That stuff is everywhere if you know how to find it....
  2. I cleaned it off and you are right. I don't think the numbers on the base are legible though. The top looks like one piece. Not sure. Shame on me for not looking closer... I guess I better start reading the anvil section more now!
  3. Man am I blind. It went right into the basement and sat. I thought it was all hammer dents, wear and tear and scuff marks. I'll dig out my packed away wire wheel grinder and see. This is cool.
  4. An anvil finally found me. Theres no markings and it weights 87 lbs according to the bathroom scale, but its a fibber.... I had an electrician over to do some work and it was in the back of his van. Time to find a new home for the ole chunk of rail.
  5. I will send you my Fregosi Emerald for a small pittance. It will change your luck forever!
  6. I agree with everything you stated, and I would expound, however this phone and its measely small keyboard and screen are like a bottle neck. I have a locked up Ipad and a laptop with a battery deader than a well preserved tribolite and was planning on getting something better with my easy got gains. Alas... I want my $4 back! I don't know what went wrong. I learned my lesson though. No more of that foolishness for me.... Sorry Frazer and Robert. Maybe next time!
  7. Come to think of it after I drew this one, just do away with the all-thread assembley and the one of the hinges and just use a rubber tipped toggle clamp. Sorry for the sideways picture. Quick change and stability!
  8. You could help a lot of people. Then it would be a free for all. I have will power, but I wonder....
  9. Actually, it would probably ruin me once and for all, but I bet it would be a fun way to go.
  10. I have tonights winning numbers in my hand. Tomorrow, $1000 credits at the IFI store to all members! After some philanthropical projects and a new shop that is.... I know hard work builds character and pays off in the long run, but this is quicker!
  11. That material would make a great scorpion, chicken or pterodactylus sculpture. Or even a bust of Lon Chaney as The Wolfman with black kevlar for fur (plus green glass beads for eyes)! I may have to learn some new skills and up the quality of my work....
  12. Do you have a sense of humor? How do you feel about constructive criticism? Your work is beyond me so I thought I would ask. Clothes pins I can understand.
  13. Maybe grind a few flat spots on it so it does not mark or scroll crooked. Or heat and beat a flat spot... Idk.
  14. Is that the abandoned rail line tour conductor? Most debonair. I want one of those pipes!
  15. I thought those handlebars were just for looks!
  16. Do you get a complimentary free drink and a bag of peanuts?
  17. Do you know how Gandy Dancers got to work?
  18. It doesnt look quite as twisted as yours but it seems Tamco made them too. I like rr relics so I searched around the web but couldn't find much on the use of them. Theres something called a "granny picker" for switches but I think thats a different tool.
  19. Those shims look like what we used for aligning motors and pumps. You can use them on your saw. But the laser will really cost you...
  20. Sorry, Thomas, I couldn't edit in time. Not very calming and refreshing when the dog finds you!
