    Generator parts and tools (slightly off topic)

    I have a friend who grew up working in his father's auto electric repair shop. He wants to get back into it as a hobby, but can't find a source for all the various small parts and specialized tools he would need. Does anyone know a source for these kinds of tools and parts? Thanks, John

    If you are a golfer, "OLD WORKS" course in Anaconda is a unique experience. It's the Anaconda Copper Smelter Superfund site that Jack Nicklaus turned into a links golf course. State owned, not expensive, and wonderful.

    Battery life

    If you do buy a "battery tender", be aware that they are not all created equal. BATTERY TENDER (trademark) ones are much better made and cost more that BATTERY BUTLER (trademark). BATTERY TENDER also comes with a pigtail connector that will let you keep the battery cover on your Model A in place...
