I'm headed to Ron Claiborne's this weekend to work with, and take home my new press.

I get to work a couple days on the in's and out's of the press and I'm bringing a bunch of cable, machine drive chain, and a stack of 01/L6 to weld up.

I am also picking up a longer welding forge from Ron that he builds in his shop.

I should be back home on Sunday and I will post some pics of the event in short order.
 
Greg, Ron's 24 ton press is a really niceone. Infact I think its the best out there. I envy you! Enjoy it.......

I sure did enjoy "Storing" one of Ron's presses in my hot shop for a couple of weeks. Ron does good work.

Yeah...minatures are my thing right now...hehheee :D
 
Have fun, Greg, and enjoy your new press. Ron's very conscientious about delivering the best product he can for the money, including that fancy paint. You'll like it, I'm sure.

You'll enjoy working with him, too. He has a whole lot to teach people about pattern welded and mosaic steel..

Eagle stretches from shoulder to shoulder across the chest, George, and half the back with the scene of some naked brown warrior fighting a dragon. The warrior was supposed to get his butt tattooed like a Samoan. Yeah, I got a little ink in the past..... Some day I'll get it in a new avatar.

Forearms were being saved for a pair of winged dragons wrapping around the arms, but I doubt I'll ever bother now. Those thoughts were days gone by.
 
I hear Ya. I have a old club tattoo that I been wanting to cover for years. It just ain't fun anymore. :( Tough getting old. :(
