The Red Fox

that is ALOT of steel. does that press work, or is it broke? thanks for the shoutout btw. lol

The press works, just need nine gorilla's to help me stand the fool thing up
that Hydro pump and 10 hp motor are for it, I'm replacing the electric with a briggs gas motor

so when did ya say you were comin to help wilis?

i recall no such statement.. LOL

I have a bunch of those propane tanks saved up too. Once you have them cut open, some hot flames from the source of your choice will get rid of the smell. I imagine you've used them for various projects before though and already know.

yup... forge bodies, small wood stoves... lol

I WANT YOUR STEEL COLLECTION LAWREN!!!!! lol I'ts heaps better than what I have. I love your ideas too man very much loomking forward to seeing the red fox complete

Great Vids Lawren! I like how you're going to use the FNR as a brake. Remember that you're going to get 2x the axle speed if you lock up one side!

Is that a regular press or a bending brake? Cool stuff Buddy. I wish I had the yard for all that stuff. I give away all my freebies because nowhere to put it all!   

This is the press when I picked it up. It included a bending break attachment, numerous dies, etc.... most home made

For a better look, (and a few laughs at me) Here's a coupla vids of the press and me and a coupla fella's loading that big beast

The tools Ron donated are for a blacksmithing school I'm setting up here soon. Ron makes some absolutely stunning Damascus billets with his press, so he donated this one to the school. Ron is a knifemaker, blacksmith, and all around good guy. For another grumpy old man that is LOL.

Good stuff right there. Bunch of good guys huh...   

That's pretty much me on a normal day... If I could learn to talk with my lips, and not my hands, I wouldn't seem so goofy


My favorite bit was Jimmy adjusting his britches right in front of the camera... LOL

Just don't talk with your hands while taking video and we're all set lol!!!     

hey, we old guys need to stick together or these kids will pass us!

Talked to Ron this morning, he's digging for parts for me now LOL

Pass the old farts sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeiiiiit gotta actually start first :p
