I was setting up my new press tonight..and the jack I thought was 20
ton..was 12 ton.

The press is rated at 30 tons..so anyone got one they want to trade
Stuff for? Harbor Freight has em for $80..but I dont have $80 at the
moment to buy a jack with.

That's OK. You also don't have any 32" diameter prop shafts to
straighten on that press at the moment, so methinks it'll work on
everything else you throw at it.

Silly Rabbi.

But Larry...yah just never know when someone will bring one in!!!

Yeah, in TAFT, of all places.



Lots of oil fields here. Lots of heavy machinery running 24/7


Drill collars - I made a few of them in my day. Okay, I did the
preliminary work, which let the next guy bore the 2.5 hole down the
centre of the 34 foot shaft. Al Hopper had the joy of turning them OD
to ID. All on manual machines, mind you.

Lots of Heavy Stuff.

Maybe something will turn up
