Ha!  I'm loving my old GT!

I do have stroke limiters, but they clamp down with threaded "box rod handles" (wheat truck terminology) and I wish I could source some cam levers. (Kinda slow...)

I have to manually set the proximity sensors, but it works!

The bearded wonder called 'ol Dad last night with the AC broke down on his International combine. I'm currently in Backyard Air Conditioning Technician Rehab, but when I release myself, (say....around 5 tonight) I might have to drive to Okiehoma to wave some magic wands to avoid enlarging the ozone hole. ((rolleyes))

And Tony, just like you told me, we CAN run WB Disch on these old machines (NOT THE COMBINE!) without being able to leave a thick layer of flood. The mesh clears pretty well, and there just isn't a whole lot of ink in the mesh to let coagulate, as long as you keep moving.

Thanks for the gratulation! I'll have to practice up calling my wife "Grandma."

my comment about the stroke length was actually a little more curious than anything... as in... maybe you run the squeegee all the way to keep the ink mixing more in the screen -- easier to add ink while printing (I know, I know, not the safest thing to do, but we all do it), etc... 

and I did start my post with 'nice :)'

When printing wb/dc through high mesh we set squeegee speed to max (this one goes to eleven) and like to give a few inches
before print start.
