I posted this over at the Miller forum but not here. A big 4' tall 150# brass light just fell off the ceiling. It was in alot of pcs and i brazed it back together. So now it shines again in time for the holidays...Bob Attached ImagesBob WrightSalem, Ohio  Birthplace of the Silver & Deming Drillhttp://groups.yahoo.com/group/southbend10k/http://groups.yahoo.com/group/sawking/1999 Miller MM185 w/ Miller 185 Spoolmate spoolgun

Reply:Nice save!!! I love brazing when I get the chance.And then, after so much work...... you have it in your hand, and you look over to your side...... and the runner has run off. Leaving you holding the prize, wondering when the runner will return.

Reply:The local electric repair company hung it off of scaffolding. They also put a cable thru the chain to keep it from falling again...BobBob WrightSalem, Ohio  Birthplace of the Silver & Deming Drillhttp://groups.yahoo.com/group/southbend10k/http://groups.yahoo.com/group/sawking/1999 Miller MM185 w/ Miller 185 Spoolmate spoolgun
