Hey Surus, check this out
« on: April 25, 2019, 10:21:37 PM »
So, one of our members stopped by the old sweat shop today and we did a dope, er, I mean castings deal in the parking lot  :lolb: :lolb:. I’ll let y’all guess, but, I’m guessing it won’t be too hard to figger out  8). Thanks to KVOM for aging the castings and the “back door delivery service” . I’m starting a small stash in hopes of “glory days” 8)



Ain’t been able to reply much, but, I have been trying to keep up with all the great work going on here. Great job guys (gal)

Nope can't open the box, it will drop the value considerably.  :lolb:

Showing that could be real bad timing Big E :stickpoke:  just as I have been trying to get Surus to forget about the Triples :facepalm: and exchange the castings for the Stuart Twin Oscillator for the Blackgates one. Now he will want me back finishing off the Triple Orphans before I am allowed more castings :toilet_claw:

I'll try to convince him that it is just an empty box you are trying to tease him with  :noidea:

P.S. The box says "Wedmore Road, Cheddar" which means it dates from before the undersized castings problems Stuarts had ;)
Enjoyment is more important than achievement.

Looks like the contents have been trying to escape through the box, have you opened it up to make sure you have not been sold a pile of iron oxide :'(

Thanks for looking folks. Yeah, I peeped in the box. Everything except the cylinders are still shrink wrapped. I’m not sure how long Kirk has been aging them. Dave, the biggest depreciation won’t happen until I start working on it  :lolb: :facepalm:  Bill, more pictures this weekend.
