Sid, sir, thank you for your kind words. 'fraid we've come to be a throw away world. Onething I didn't have time for and don't now is workhardin. You see. . . steel goes thru a transformation when it's put to work, example, coil springs under railroad cars, and the cuttin' edges on bulldozer and grader blades. A transformation occurs as steel is worked, or work hardened and it comes better for certain applications. A chisel or punch made from used coil springs will be better than one made from new stell of the same type. Can you imagine the Engr Types, the proferssor, the doctorate, tellin' Benjamin Franklin it won't work. Then it did. The next day they are electrical Engrs. Writing long disertations. How about the boys, when Mr. Wright cranked up his air mobile. They'd already told him it wouldn't fly, they were sittin' in the sand buildin' castles when he went over the top of them. But. . they were there, so the next day. . yeah you guessed it. They're AeroEngrs writin' long disertations. Rave on Engr Types. Wild Bill Caldwell Wild Bill Caldwell Custom Weaponry
