Great Time at the Steam Show!
Just wanted to say what a great time I had at the steam show this weekend! It had been way too long since the last time I had been to Pike or Cabin Fever.
Met some new folks and a few regulars.

Re: Hello, all
Wheat, I’d love to see your steam engines! I completed one last winter (I think that was when). If you plan to convert your crane and need help or have questions give me a shout. Jim
