Hi Clif,
I agree - while the models are very nice, I can't see that they're worth
what was asked. It is touchy for me to say that, as I have no idea how many
hours were spent, and it is unfair for me to judge the value of someone
else's work, but still a lot of cash to ask. I'm sure the market for such
items at these prices must be very small.
Anyone know why they're for sale?
Had excellent success this weekend with building a simple large gas burner
to the Bob Reil design for melting and forging. I'll try to get some pix of
it working on to TEL's site. Unbelievably simple and lots of heat using
propane. For a 3/8" steel rod, from cold to red heat in 10 seconds.
Cheers, Jeff Dayman Waterloo Ontario Canada
