    They are owned by Doosan, the Melroe family sold to Ingersoll Rand in the late 80's or early 90's Ingersoll Rand sold it to Doosan in 2007 When the Melroe family sold it they put a 200 year clause in the contract that can not be removed from any buyer or seller (believe me they have tried) that production has to be maintained at Gwinner and Bismarck plants, they are trying to move some of the production to Mexico right now but as long as they keep the Plants open at Gwinner and Bismarck I think it will be allowed. I am not saying I am for this change, but that is what Doosan is trying to do right now.

    Dumb thing shoulda not been in the path of a dropping bin jack. Not thinking straight after a long day setting up bins...happened while setting up the last round of sheets. Y'all git yourself a bottle zmo oil! The best painkiller you'll find. 20250724_194427_resized.jpg

    The one thing I learned from an acquaintance to say in Spanish, I was told never to say to some one in the barrio. :)

    I've got room on mine for a Plasma Cutter, when I need it. :) Right now, it's holding the welder and the welding supplies so I could get them out of my tool box and cabinet. Now I've got room to put something else in their place. :)

    You're doing better than me, all I got so far is "rice or beans" and "plates hot".

    Ate my last chicken from a Mexican restaurant about 6 months ago since all I got was some nasty a ss tasting chicken, that I can only describe as like having battery acid in my mouth. So I don’t even try to understand anymore lol, just give me a hamburger with cheese with fries……

    There's a Mexican restaurant in the little town I like in that we don't eat at , tried it a few times not good. We go about 15 miles away for good Mexican food.
