Vintage Machinery Open House and Work Weekend! July 1-2, 2023, Tifton, GA

[@jonscott8843]

Watching this and was struck by how much weight you have shed. Looking very fit and svelte, sir. Well done!

[@jrkorman]

Agreed. I've been noticing that over the past couple of months. Glad to see it also! Keith's breathing a year ago was concerning.

[@WreckDiver99]

Noticed it a while ago, refrained from saying anything for a bit. He's really looking good that's for sure. Too bad I found all that weight he lost. :(

[@dennismedvee8621]

I guess we can say--"The less we see of Keith, the better".

[@donmedford2563]

@@WreckDiver99 I was going to make a comment to Keith and say the same thing. I am happy for him that he can lose weight but I am angry that he sent it all to me. lol

[@davidmontgomery1016]

🤣🤣🤣I really expected to be dead before email was referred to as "old fashioned."

[@chaschan60]

I wish I lived closer, this is very cool.

[@melshea2519]

Good morning Georgia 😊

[@gringofett3944]

Want to also complement you on getting slimer! I have been working on that myself and so I know how helpful it is to have people tell you you are doing great!

[@12345NoNamesLeft]

Keith, great job on the fitness, it's paying off and I know how hard it is to do it and keep it up.

[@smaggies]

Great library for all machinist. Thank Keith :)

[@RRINTHESHOP]

I wish I could make it Keith, I have use your website many times. Thanks for sharing so much.

[@transmaster]

Keith you need to have someone enter all of titles, catalog numbers, machine manuals and such into a spreadsheet. This would make it easy to keep track of what you have.

[@kindabluejazz]

He's been doing this archiving for over 20 years on his website - I think he knows what to do. He needs eyes, backs and hands to help, if helping is what you're interested in doing.

[@charliemason4355]

Keith, it says a lot when email is considered "old fashion"!

[@donmedford2563]

I had to chuckle when he said that was the good old fashioned way. lol

[@jaybailey3518]

What a daunting task !!! You're a GOD !

[@Farm_fab]

For those who are unaware, Keith is in sath Jawjah, which is noth of Flahda.😅

[@ke5wl804]

What happens to the physical copies of the manuals after you finish scanning them? Thanks for all your great work digitizing all these. Really enjoyed the video showing the setup and process you use.

[@donmedford2563]

I was wondering the same thing. He said this is the largest SINGLE donation to the site. That means he has MOUNTAINS of manuals that he has already scanned. I wonder what he does with all of them.

[@floridaflywheelersantiquee7578]

I wish i could be there thanks for sharing

[@rossgebert-goldsmith183]

Looking good Keith

[@georgeescaped6035]

i'm thinking you will have LOTS of help i would be there except it's a long drive from Nevada!! have fun

[@daviddauphin838]

Nice haul - congrats!

[@katelights]

have to try and not get distracted reading the old catalogs :D

[@hilltopmachineworks2131]

Yeah I bet there some cool photos in them.

[@kimber1958]

Thank you Kate for sharing I look forward to meeting you at the bars these summer bash. Kimber

[@khubba10]

Fellow Keith from Jax, sent an email, 2.5 hr drive is very doable and would love to drive up to meet you and help out.

[@KeefyKat]

Now we know where all those boxes of classified documents went!

[@davidk537]

I'd like to come and help I'm in the northeast corner of Pennsylvania

[@johnfriend240]

Would love to help but long trip from SoCal. Will see you at the Bash though!

[@stephensmith8756]

Keith You've lost so much weight ! I hope and pray it's because of a plan and not some other condition. I showed you six months ago, and presently, to my wife, who is also going through a weight reduction programme and she said immediately, " he's had his stomach stapled ". I respect that's your choice, but if that's so, it's had a dramatic effect. Keep the great videos coming. Best regards from Albion Park, NSW, Australia.

[@garybrenner6236]

I hope one of the visitors will ask about the Stoker Engine.

[@elcheapo5302]

I've been subscribed so long, I remember when the videos were filmed there. And when the cameras were stolen. Wish I was close enough to stop by and help out, Keith. You're looking great, btw.

[@markbernier8434]

I think I would find it fascinating but the travel is out of the question currently. I would like to know how you are scanning all that literature and perhaps a clip of what you are using.

[@Sizukun1]

He's shown it in a couple setups before, years ago. Its a strange erector set style of a scanner to grab both pages of the book. Its been setup in a spare room in his house for years now.

[@markbernier8434]

@@Sizukun1 Thanks. I was wondering as I have seen some insanely expensive book scanners at a museum.

[@felderup]

i wonder if anyone has the old lindsay books scanned... gingery's books were sold there for a while, they'd be good to reprint.

[@wags9777]

A van norman 1/2 manual would be sweet

[@canuckloyalist4681]

1223 miles...i wish you were closer!

[@mikewatson4644]

I would love to come and help, but.... a 23 hour drive each way is a little more than I can handle. Good luck

[@pvtimberfaller]

Do you ever get throttle time on that little steam locomotive anymore?

[@joopterwijn]

Sorry Keith, living in the EU Netherlands, over the big splash. A bit out of range😢

[@RobertKohut]

Lookin' slim... 🙂

[@ronsreadyornotshop]

Is there anyone that can take me from exit 61 or 62 to Keith's in the morning?

[@RB-yq7qv]

Hi Keith. Do you have an area that can take vans or campers were people can stay for a couple nights.

[@NotJRB]

Maybe send an email to Keith with that question.

[@charlesmiles9115]

😛😛😛😛❤❤👍👍👍👍👍

[@geneard639]

I really wish I could. *sigh*

[@JohnDoe-es5xh]

Maybe Dominion scanners could be abused for this huge task, if many ppl willing to help.

[@scrotiemcboogerballs1981]

Thanks for sharing hope you had a great Father’s Day

[@kirksnyder6190]

My advice, make duplicate copies on a harddrive, disks, etc., with a computer that can be used and place this info in a faraday apparatus.

[@AB-these-handles-are-stupid]

Please vet anyone coming over

[@AB-these-handles-are-stupid]

Even if it is something simple

[@ianhelsbyservices]

​@@AB-these-handles-are-stupidlike a minimum $50 donation as entry fee?
