Photo of The Day

[chester]

Thought you all might like to see some photos from a 1912 Disston Tool handbook that I recently uploaded. The one below shows a nice overhead drive system. On a personal note, my grandfather built a house for Henry Disston Jr. in the '20's. The rest of the images may be found here:   http://s191.photobucket.com/albums/z79/chesterf/Old%20Tools/Disston%20Saw-1912/

Howdy,

just this wonderfull Indian Railcar!

[mabloodhound]

How do you like the foot brake on that rig?   
Sure would like to have the Indian with its wheels though.

[Mobilgas]

The indian motorcycle is worth some Big Bucks even without the wheels $$

[Ray Dunakin]

I love it! The foot brake is especially cool.

..just a follow-up on an earlier post. I was going through some printed photos....the kind before digital came along.....and found these of that diner up near Solvang.  Note that it shows the colors before the hippies got hold of it .
