I went outside to feed my chickens today & was planning on doing some running around paying bills , but decided to get thawed out & stay inside . Its in the negative degrees here today with winds . I appreciate you keeping me in mind for future stuff . Not many in this area do much with restoring things , but still I never seem to be in the rite place to pick up throw aways when it happens . A couple yrs ago I did find a discarded old round BBQ grill made years ago of 1/4" heavy steel . So I built a nice forge out of it .So , I lucked out that day . Also one day at a guys house who was a refuse collector , I saw an old large anvil laying outside his house . Asked him how much . I got it for $25.00 . It needed a lot of building up with DC 1/4" 7018 welding rod to get it back to its original glory . It turned out nicely , & I've done some heavy forming on the welded areas with no failures to this day . So, I have had a couple good throwaways . So , thanks again for thinking of me . Maybe next time to Philly , you can contact me . My email is KCRISMAN@pa.rr.com if interested .later my friend , God bless, Ken [Reply]   [No Email]

I have no idea as to how or how long to drive there . A lot of Sheriffs transport vans come to Franklin courthouse transferring juvies to a locl juvie correctional farm . Its called Vision Quest . Ever since it was started this area has had a lot of home invasions , stealing guns, money, & cars . Years ago 2 of them broke into my garage , caused alot of damage trying to steal our car , My X wife barged in on them & cALLED FOR HELP IN TIME FOR ONE ARREST . I"m glad she wasan"t hurt . Boy I never thought my marriage & life would end like it did in 2000 . I would give anything to have her back . But my kids would never help me out by coaxing her to get help . So my life has downhill ever since . My kids won"t come & visit me at all . It depresses me to think about it so I"m done .God bless , Ken [Reply]  [No Email]

But only a couple people made any move to help for only a short time . Very devistating & disappointing . Thanks tho for the encouragemnet . God bless, Ken [Reply]  [No Email]
