Re: Latest block info.
Thanks much, that is an amazing looking block.
Tod, you better stamp it #1, because if it gets mixed up with a painted original , might just gain legs and disappear Congratulations on making FIRST duplicate model a block....ever ! Can't wait to see the aluminum version !!! Last edited by hardtimes; 07-14-2016 at 02:26 AM. Reason: ................... |

One of these days I will get time to put the 5 main aluminum mold together and cast the next aluminum sample. I'm just really busy right now, but I hope things will settle down some soon. Tod |

Re: Latest block info.
What is the purpose of new blocks ? Is there a shortage of used blocks ? What will they cost ? Wayne

Yup, I'm good at waiting and now, sometimes, even make plans for 'tomorrow' ! There's little doubt that you can do whatever you have time for and put your mind to It's not easy to find me down, but this 'fixing' 80/90 yr old cast iron blks , has finally twisted my tail, enough so that I WILL wait rather than dumping any more $ into one more rusted out original iron block. Heck, if I get nostalgic when viewing your brand new 5x5 alum blk....I'll paint it Ford green , eh |

Re: Latest block info.
Well, it isn't quite all together yet but almost. Video as soon as possible. Hoping for Monday. A few things pulled time away from the build so it had to sit.
I suppose it is just about time to ask again just how many people think they are interested in blocks. Tod |
