Good Finds from Coolspring Power Museum and Orange Enginuity Shows
« on: June 30, 2026, 07:45:48 am »
At Coolspring I picked up a nice smallish precision drill press.

At Orange i snagged a steam plant with 3 Stuart pieces and a heavily constructed old boiler which of course will get a thorough inspection and hydro test.

Looks like that Stuart assemblage got plenty of run time back in the day, and I do like that antique drill press, but do be careful with your fingers when pulling on that handle!!!
