When i got my first job it was at a large construction company , I started with mowing the grass and cleaning the office . In the large board room All four walls had shelf's and on those shelf's was a detailed model of every piece of equipment the old man owned . He owned three big company's two based out of the small town where i lived and one on the west side of the state . As fall came on he added more work for me as i was now sweeping the main shop , that is where the real education started as the main shop was a bee hive of things going on with all the people that worked in there , Machinest's , welders, mechanic's, Carpenter's . once a month i had to dust all those models . The details of them looked like someone shrunk the real piece down , The cable shovels had tiny cable and pulleys the operator cab was full detail with levers and pedals , the doors of the house slide open and ya could see a detailed engine and draw works , steel tracks . Cat I H and A/C dozers full detail Old Cat D W 10's and 21' Galion graders Cat graders , Mack White and Autocars Rodgers lowboys Rollers D 8 cat with a spreader box in ft. instead of a blade . IF there was one setting in the lot there was a model of it in the board room . The two bigget models were the Manitwock (sp) 4600 and the Lima 2400 They did several jobs as in heavy crane work , Drag line Clamshell and loading shovels . to move them it took and army to tear them down and a fleet of trucks to move then put it all back together at the job site.

Today's Featured Article - Chores - by Frank Young. The ceaseless passing of time! It is at once our friend and our enemy. It measures our progress and it makes us old. Like most features of our life, few things are all good or all bad, and most such judgments depend on our own perspective or viewpoint. In our particular hobby, we enjoy the nostalgic return to the days of our youth as we recreate many of the scenes that took place on the family farm that served as the stage for the first few acts of the play that is our live ...
