That’s crazy. I would NOT have expected to find smithing tongs at Princess Auto. I need to get out more….

That’s a brilliant design with the built-in bucket underneath.

“…great deal” may be a bit of an understatement there! Wow, killer deal on a great machine. Hope there’s nothing bad lurking under the covers but from what you’re saying it sounds super.

Wow, finally eh? You’ve been waiting a while for that one as I recall, hope the recovery goes well for you Bill. -frank

Interesting, and nice work on the calculations. I’m no expert in babbitt but I think there’s a number of different alloys and mixes that were used depending on the application. Still couldn’t find anything on the foundry but I’m sure there were a ton of them out east.

That’s what I’m thinking. I wasn’t able to find much on “Arctic Metal” other than modern electric guitars but I may sniff around some more. I have a Canada Metal ingot of lead here that makes a great bit of winter ballast in the truck — I think it weighs about 100lbs.

Nice haul. Looks like a half ingot of babbit too or maybe just lead?
