I see Mr. I Have the Floor Model Ken wants no part of this discussion. Tear down that wall, Ken. We don't wanna have to come in after it.

About the only thing I miss being employed are all the neat tools I could use. There were DoAll drill presses all over the place. Even had a few made after 1955...

Ive been told by the old fats that how they measure a HP is different than it used to be. 1 hp in them old days was more that what is advertised now. It made sense when it was told to me. Dont remember the details now.
