Hey Guys:

I finally got my 120 inch Niles Boring Machine operational. It has taken 14 months and $32,000 to restore it. It is a big, beautiful beast!!! I loaded the back head cover of our Indian River Hydro Plant into it last night. The part weighed 3100 pounds. I need to make 14 more tee nuts for the table slots this morning so I can tie the part down. You may enjoy perusing the baby Picasa Web Album from last night:

I hope these are not "boring" photos!!!

Sincerely,

Bill Fay

Not boring at all! I like to see different operations and machinery that we don't encounter every day.
