Door Additions
« on: May 05, 2025, 07:41:33 pm »
Went to the tip over the weekend and there were two large cast iron hand wheels in a pile that I grabbed.
A nice paint job and turned up something to mount them on and screwed onto the steam room door.....you can feel the weight on the door when you open and close it now with all the additions!
My youngest Grandson (3) thinks its the best thing turning those hand wheels!!!!

Look just like they belong there!

But just at a guess, it seems you might not be wanting to slam that door closed any too hard ....... could knock the rest of the house over!?!?   ;c)

Looks real good Jim. Tell your grandson when he's turning them he's opening the steam vault.😊
