Mainly wheelchair wheels and tires. Some ag stuff like tile guards and corn planter seed packer wheels. Ladder parts and some food machine parts.
 
Yes. five of them. Three 360's and two 220's.
The rest are older US made machines. Two Reeds, two New Britain, all 200 ton and one 250 ton Cincinnati.
 
Yes, It is a shame that almost no molding machines are made in the US anymore.. But, I think the molding biz is making a comeback.. Last week, I went to an auction, a 500 ton Toshiba with 51,000 hours brought 95,000 dollars + 12% buyers premium. Prices were through the roof for molding and tooling machinery.
 
Dick's "sweat shop" ? Everyone has to have a fan close by.

Do those machines make alot of heat ?
 
Did you work on HPM machines or Lesters? Or did you by any chance go to the HPM schooling? I went in 1962 and Chuck something was the instructor.
 
I worked on several different makes. HPM, Rogers, Battenfeld, New Britian, and a few others I can't recall. Was a machine repairman machinist at General Motors for 33 years. Spent the last 20 years troublsshooting and repairing Hydraulic systems. Thanks for asking. rw
