Re: dresser TD40B dozer
Keep going at it. Hopefully you can get it somewhat working.
That teebar would have hard spots in it from it being formed. Maybe you should
have heated them red orange to anneal them first.

Re: dresser TD40B dozer
You're getting more done than I am. Right now I'm trying to decipher what I last drew back a few months ago on my 9W.
Are they cutting that old 40?

Re: D8R +463 in 1/5,6

Hey Dan, You may want to cut the glass to size then see about getting it tempered so it won't crack easily.

Re: St. Louis Event Ideas???
