Chris, work is progressing and looking great as always. Did you notice how much those two pieces looked just like a chainsaw bar? Cletus

At your pace...You live by a different clock.Or in a different universe.I'm thinking the latter. In my universe, it sometimes takes a half a day just to wake up.Perhaps I should change my choice of coffee.

Truly outstanding work Chris!gbritnell
Hi Chris,As others have said some really good work, and at such a pace. The following may be of interest.Yesterday I received the Spring issue of Equipment Echoes, (the journal of the Historical Construction Equipment Associaton (HCEA) based in Ohio, you probably know it already)In it there is an interesting item on the Marion Model 91 shovel with a picture from the HCEA archives showing the machine at work. Apparently it was one of the machines originally used for the Panama Canal construction.Last issue there was an article on the Marion Company itself.Keep the elves happyJerry
