Sorry to hear the bad news CS. I hope you didn't loose anything that was irreplaceable. That is what really sucks. Good luck with the rebuilding.

With alot of phone calls,,hand shaking and thank you's . We moved into our new temp. shop[bare] ..going shopping today for for some larger pcs of equipment must have to keep going...///dug up all my coffee cans in the back yard/// but what the heck..can't take it with you...support from everyone has been great.sure takes the bite out of this mess.

the only thing that I'll miss is my grandfathers bandsaw...it was well over 100 years old...I remember as a kid standing there watching him cutting out profiles of shore birds so he could carve them into life like birds.

I'm sure it does...had pockets that the wheel shafts sat/layed in that were made of lead, that had to be oiled all the time. it was also a left cutting table..backwards of what they are today...30" wheels an cast iron one pc frame..even though its twisted and sagging,, I'm still going to hang onto it....once I can get to it.
