But the story - we recently received a substantial donation of tooling for our Fay molder and it will also work on the ex Illinois Traction molder/sticker we obtained 9/27. Here Ed Chase works on sorting and placing paired cutters into some new shelves while Henry Vincent adds the last shelf. Tim Peters and Wayne Baksic also did a lot of work on this wall unit. |
