Re: Oklahoma
Lots of tornado warnings going around. We here had a small one go north of us, and 2 small ones go south of us. We actually threaded the needle. Reports have one death over east in Barnsdall.

Re: Flint and walling wheel?
If you take it apart, you will find a certain weight factor, composed of hole punch-outs. Guess the guy sweeping the floor had an important job after all.

Re: Monitor WB rod take off

Take out the 2 bolts of the rocker arm and put you fingers under the rocker arm where you took the 2 bolts out of. It helps to ...

Re: Windmill automatic float system shut off
A farmer customer made his own from a aired up tire, long 2x4, and a hinge on the tankside. When the tire went up, the 2x4 pivoted on the tank, and the end went down to pull the lever. Had them on most of his mills. I sure felt sorry for those brakes.
