[SEL] Re: Pinned Rings - Problems or Not? now back to nutz

[bill at antique-engines.com]

Poor, poor old horse, ain't got any hair left!

I just disassembled a 50' windmill tower - a Dempster, all original.
Nuts had flat against the iron.

A Piece of JD equipment (old disk) out back - same.
My plow - same.

:-)

Yeah, we needed another me, too- couldn't resist, I guess - sorry.
