Bill Keen Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 Been running a forge, foundry, machine shop for 40 years. Ran across you concerning power hammers. Have a Nazel 2-B and Chambersburg 500 lb single arch Utility. Also 12,000 lb press brake and 250 ton press brake. Plus, I don't know how many tons of material and support tools. I'll work through your topics, mostly looking for energy and inspiration to get myself back in the mix. Glad I found you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Keen Posted October 18, 2012 Author Share Posted October 18, 2012 Thanks for the welcome. I live in my woods near Chapel Hill, NC. Been in NC all my life except three years, Navy, late sixties. Tried pretty much everything I could do with metal and ceramics and wood. Eclectic, (ADHD?) Accumulated my tools at the local scrapyard, finding things under the tree out behind shops, just being nice and waiting. Ran a sculpture art foundry, machine shop, welding and fab, 35 years. Still have my equipment, slowing down, too much, at 65. Glad I found you. Reminds me of what I used to do. Will input info and pics as best I can.
