Thanks Paul!!  It's been a fun, rewarding, and educational trip fer sure. 
Being a closet luvin' steamer, I can't wait to get the smarts in order to 
boil water safely.  For now we'll just use compressed air.

  It came out of a sawmill here in the "Bitteroot Valley"...we believe it 
possibly drove a blade sharpener.  Wachs is still in business out of Chicago 
but not into steam anymore.  We have been in touch with the president who's 
helped us out some.

  On a second note, I'd like to personally send MANY THANKS to Paul P.  down 
under.  I came by this very tired old Lunk. displacement oiler for the 
Wach's....found JUNIOR stamped on it  and sure enough Paul P.  had the 
JUNIOR in his fantastic website.  THANKS MUCH PAUL!! helps us a lot.  "you 
da mate."  <vbg>

  Now we just need a belt driven governor.

Well today is crankup time for the Gal sawing outfit so wish me luck

later,
RickinMt.
