My wife wonders if the viscous looking cleats in the left hand photo have a particular
name. errol.groff@snet.net
These items are found in the small engine room The two right hand photos
show a very interesting pulley with an alternate interrupted rim. I had
never seen one of these before!
There was an interesting lumberjacking demonstration going on.
I ran into these fellow Tech School teachers at the show. From L to R are
Errol Groff Manufacturing Technology Instructor at Ellis Tech in Danielson, CT,
Ed Drapatin, Manufacturing Technology Department Head at Kaynor Tech in
Waterbury CT and I will have to follow up with the name of the other fellow who
teaches Physics at Kaynor Tech.
Also seen at the get together were Ernie Smith of NEMES, Bob Vincent, well liked used tool vendor.
Al these bricks were manufactured in CT
This display of fluorescent rocks are under black light and should have been
photographed with a tripod which I did not have with me. But I am
delighted that the colors came out so great.
This scale tractor is between 1/3 and 1/2 scale and was completely rebuilt by the current owner.
These last photos taken in the machine shop at the CAMA grounds.
