    Very cool.

    Can't even imagine how much it would cost to replicate such an operation today.

    Wonderful! Thanks. I've been there, and had stock cut there. It is an amazing operation. They are not kidding about the hearing protection. These fotos, though, showed me some of the operating details that I had no clue about. Fun stuff.
