Just milling around...

I was surprised it did so much after the cut that released it. The base must be pretty tacky.
|
It's held down by a vacuum table, but you're right. After the pockets, center hole and outline are cut there isn't a hell of a lot of surface area to hold it. Also, that pad, for lack of a better word, beneath the part so they don't cut into the table, must be porous so the vacuum can reach the part. After so much is cut away there must be a large amount of wasted vacuum. It must be a hell of a pump/reservoir to maintain enough vacuum on the part.

Very cool. The vacuum must be wicked strong. I was thinking nonporous pad with some kind of adhesive.
|
The vacuum is those 4 valves he turned on before he started.

Back in the day when trailers were growing faster than cars, and there was no F-350 Diesel Dually, a little help was in order.

Impressive engine...
|
I suppose there's an engine under there. Somewhere.

The only thing being blocked from view is part of the valve cover by what I'd guess is the accumulator tubes for the intake system.
You can get a headlight system for your Model T in solid brass. The Amish must pay an extra buck to get them in black. ;) |

Whaaa, the two carbs and blower are part of the engine, although they do hide the short block.

The first Econoline I've liked...
|
When I show him these pics, this guy I know is going to have a genuine conniption.
He loves those '60's Econoline vans & pick-ups. And he's a purist, too, thinks everyone of them ought to to be bone stock and factory. I hope he shits his pants.:D |
I've heard of some weird fetishes but stock Econolines is really really sick. :lol:
