Jerry W. Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Good luck! We had the Balcones Forge October meeting here last Saturday. It was a lot of work getting ready but, in the end, it was a great meeting. We had people showing up before 8:00 in the morning and it was well after dark when the last ones left. It is looking like we may have to do it again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JNewman Posted November 4, 2012 Author Share Posted November 4, 2012 Tongs for 4" billet I hope, Stelco didn't do anything small... Pictures please! Just small ones. He is 87 after all. He gets upset seeing the poor quality tongs at most guys shops when I take him to OABA meetings. I probably won't get a chance to take many pictures but there are lots of guys who will and I will post links to any pictures/video taken.
