It is interesting to see the difference a hundred or so years will make.

That is interesting we looked through the old albums the other day and saw when the 1st Case steam engine was built the mid 1800's just think for a second all those hot forge tables to make all those heavy gears probably days to make verses what we do now is take a block set it into a CNC mill less then 5minutes you have your part times for sure changed

They both used horse power and produce exhaust when being used.

The cutter has been in my wife's family for at least 4 generations.  Her dad could remember his grandparents using the cutter for transportation in the winter.

The question will be whether or not four generations from now if  my family still has a running Kawasaki.
