The prairies are known for their warm summers, so why should we worry about the probability of rain, let alone the thought of snow warnings and road closures? Hats off to all the people and businesses that helped in its creation and implementation. The dorms were available for the people who flew in, the RV lot held all the people who drove to the event, and the hotels took care of all the others from out of town, such as Francis Whitaker and company.

Most of the builds I remember in the last few years have been for the inline type with the explanation that you do not have to make any adjustment to the hammer to when you switch out tooling. However I have talked to two professionals who said the very much prefer the swing-arm type. The reason begin that they hit faster and harder and so they can get more work done in the same amount of time. If I recall correctly the linkage in the inline design is less efficient in converting movement of the treadle into movement of head and thus take more time and energy to accelerate the head than the swing-arm design.
