Haha I think I'm good. I don't quite feel like driving all the way to Colorado right now

Currie open gear?

That's a pretty cool rig ya got there! Guessing the truck is a 92-96 f250? And you got that right Mike! That's why I have a dual tone freeway blaster in my truck...

Oh wow isn't that cool. Thanks Paul!

There's a large, my guess 20' mill I pass every time I go to and from Houston. It's behind the first national bank in Bastrop TX at the intersection of hwy 21 and hwy 71. Photos courtesy of Google maps as I haven't stopped to get a closer look yet lol

Very cool sign, but can we get a picture of the truck it's on? Haha

Well Mike, whenever you're ready to start building a tower for it, I got your punch in today! And it indeed has a 3/8 die already in it

I have this complete wheel with two extra but damaged sections.

Windy, I'm also a fan of your painting choices haha

It looks like this mill was turned off instead of being left to run without oil. The pullout assembly stuck in the off position so it's been not turning for some time. Im guessing the damage to the tail and wheel happened when the mill was taken down. Good point Mike, I have been in that situation. ...
