Wood Shop

New Guy

We would like to welcome new volunteer, Keith Letsche.  Keith came out to help today and was put to work on the TMS truck rebuilding, and then given a taste of work being done on the CTS 4223 project.  Shown here, he is restoring one of the many aluminum window sash.  Thanks, Keith, it was a pleasure meeting you; I hope we will see in the future weeks.

Frosted

Tim Peters is getting frosted!  Or rather, he has been sandblasting window glass for the CRT 1797.  After glazing in the frames, it will be painted with the black field denoting the car number in the upper sash at each end of the sides.

Variety

Getting tired of all the window work?  Tim caught me in the act of goofing off trying to 'inspect' what he was doing.  He never goofs off, and is almost a non stop machine.  Here he has made several carefully fitted wood repairs to the motorman's door, and is sanding it down, to be ready to begin painting.

A lot of other work went on, parts being processed through our mortiser machine, and some new stock for window bottoms sawn and sized, these destined for IC diner 3996.
