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)

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

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 ;)

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.
