: : Jim : My pa in law told me of hundreds of old Fords that went to the scrap drives of WWII, I would guess that a lot of old farm equipment went the same way. The link to the past was almost severed once and it would be sad to see it go a piece at a time. Old tractors, old implements, old guns, old languages, old ways, old people, I think we've fallen into the snare of "new and improved."
Our niche is OEM short to medium lots machined parts.We have to to have the latest CNC equipment to be competitive with the latest computer software to run it,but that doesn't mean we have to forget the old ways or the old people.I agree it's a shame to see it slip through our fingers although I believe the old people and the morals and work ethics they had(or have) are the most valuable commodity we're losing.
