South Bend always made nice stuff. They made so many, I think there are still a lot of parts kicking around. Just be real careful around all the open belting. All the old guys had tales to tell about changing speeds on the fly. Now that you have good brazing skills you may want to fab a guard or two. Nice acquisition. South Bend always made nice stuff.

Just be real careful around all the open belting. All the old guys had tales to tell about changing speeds on the fly. Now that you have good brazing skills you may want to fab a guard or two.

Yesterday the kids who live behind us were having fun watching the crane going. The whole procedure went pretty quickly. I think the truck with the knuckle boom crane was here about an hour. Hopefully we''ll have remodelled our yard decades before I have to move this thing out of here. The new yard plans call for a 3'' wide ramp on one side which would make getting this out of here a lot easier. Haven”t talked to the neighbor’’s this morning.
