Another bunch at another time were touring the sand cast foundry. I got a call from someone out there, asked if they could see Plant 4. II can't approve it, but let me ask our plant manager. He exploded! "Son of a Bitch!" He said he had a call asking if these guys could come in and see our enertia welding operation for shafts. He said no way - so they were trying to get in through the back door by going to the foundry directly behind our plant and then figuring they could get in - didn't happen.

Would really like to see some pics of their enertia welding machines, GE had some 300 and 380 ton machines to join aircraft engine parts???

Dear Mr Photo Master FUJIMO,
See if you can find me a picture of a 1985 or 86 Chris Craft 311 That Mercury used in magazine ads with the moniker FLY FISHING. Had twin 200's on it with red and black stripes on the side of the hull. I bought it in 86 and kept it until I had Britton build my OceanHawk in 89. I used to have a poster of it In my shop but when I sold the building to Fine Lines it got lost.
Thanking you in advance in case you luck out.
Butch
