I had no intention to stopping you from posting articles! That would be a crime! What I was trying to do was turn your head to include how to use your thoughts to make better Gingery type machines or improvments to the original plans. Please do not stop posting!
Thanks Wonk

Once I brought up Gingery it is amazing that those who were waiting in the wings seemed to come out of the woodwork again. I've seen this happen several times in the past and it even caused me to edit and retreat from this site. I was asked to rejoin by Clint before he past away, and I try to be a good lurker and ignore posts that I have no value in reading but........

I'm off my soapbox and since I'm not the site owner or moderator I will bow to your need to post. My hopes will be that those who want to say something about Gingery machines will speak up, and yes other metal related stuff is good also
