An old man (that’d be me, BTW), his son, and their gray cat. Never gets inside, that one. Too quick with his claws. We don’t know where he came from – works this property day and night.

Looking at the Delta – all cast iron and steel. Still cuts as true as ever. Just a tad unsafe to use, by today’s standards.Read More
