    tough day

    Tough day this past week as I sold my Kwikway. Really enjoyed sleeving, boring, and building but time has come to go fishing more often. Young guy here in town wants to be a motor machinist and has been accumulating machinery whilst he works his regular job. His day will come and he will be ready. Pretty sharp dude and his Dad has some Mercury sperience so tween the two of them should be able to build a decent business. I wish them luck.

    I had to discontinue a business that I had grown for 30 yrs due to an injury. Real sad time, but things have to change and you just have to go with the flow. Go fishing and enjoy life....

    I've bored hundreds of motorcycle cylinders on the Kwik Way and honed them on the Sunnen LBB1699 machines. Hope the young guy can keep it working !!
