Spam - No I don't want Train Wheels

I know where there are some train wheels stashed in the bush.

I once worked in a steel mill that made train wheels and tyres. (The tyres were made of steel, not rubber, to go outside a smaller wheel.) Part of my job was testing how hard the wheels were. (Yes, I know all steel is hard, but some batches of steel products could be harder than others.)

I think this is one of those deals where they send you too many train wheels and ask you to send a Western Union money order back for the difference in price. Don’t do it!

I’d be very, very cautious about this ad.

In my experience you can usually get train wheels cheaper at the local T.W. store.

But then you have to carry them home yourself. Do you have any idea how much train wheels weigh?

A lot. They’re used as mid-ocean buoy anchors. Here’s a pic - not mine - that shows stacks of wheels (starboard side) on deck.

I now know way too much about train wheels.

Next up: Someone in China is offering to let me distribute bladeless fans:

What’s a “facotry”?

Oh, now they manufacture bladeless fans. When I was a child, we had to take the blades off the fans by hand. While they were moving. In the cold.

These young kids never know how easy they have it.:mad:

Don’t want train wheels? Don’t want to deal with a facotry?

How about DJ equipment?
