Posted by MeesterPanda Beautiful work! I love your use of color ! Sometimes the whole grungy thing gets a bit old -_- , it's great to see photos like these! Fantastic job

Music to my ears! How VERY kind. Thanks So Much!

Very nice set of photos! You captured so many nice textures and colors. Seeing this makes me wonder how bad that river gets polluted by nasty stuff leaking from the factory.

This whole area is polluted. Factories, Refineries, are quite abundant in this part of Tx. Fish still swim the mucky waters, but people are warned not to eat them. If you want clean rivers you have to travel up to the hill country. (Central Tx.) I appreciate you commenting on the colors and textures sirsexy

I've been a machinist for 20 years... did I just say that? Which one did I miss?

#28... here is a frontal view...says shear press


But, hey, I'm no machinist...maybe it punches too. Don't worry about the 20 yr business. Machinist make pretty good money. Especially if you specialize in what you do.

Yep, shear press. A little harder to tell from the side.

Ya know i thought the same thing. I just wasn't playing fair. Gave you a silly side view and had the nerve to tell you that you was wrong. Where is my Sweet Southern manners!?! hahaha! Thanks so much for being a good sport.
