But I have failed to put that in the important part of my memory. What was their original application?

If you find a source, let us know because those motors are getting to be hard to find.

Yep, John Rowland, the counterfeit Chinese highland park saw guy bought them all up to corner the market.
I'm sure a shop in China will be duplicating them in their usual slipshod fall apart way so he can continue
towards his goal of running more US businesses out of business.
Nice guy.

A few years back, I decided 1 sphere machine was just not enough. bought a couple sets of these motors, started building... got busy with life, moved and all they have all been sitting collecting dust.Now I am contenplating another temporary move to a smaller place and want to downsize a bit If someone is interested I am willing to part with these motors and I can get around to listing them. I'm in Utah. 8o1 36o o26l

gary95340: Hello, I read the Jasper Point post, 2009. I am part owner of the KAREN LYNN claim. It’s located in Hunters Valley. It’s a Jasper load claim. To my knowledge it is illegal to collect rocks in the Lake McClure area, owned by MID. Jasper Point is in MID Dec 7, 2024 23:57:23 GMT -5

gary95340: New to this, I haven’t a clue on posting. I have about 1 ton of jasper, various sizes. Dec 8, 2024 0:02:13 GMT -5

gary95340: No use to hang around, I’m out of here. Dec 8, 2024 0:03:29 GMT -5

gary95340: Jasper point is a geographic location easily located on a topographical map. It obtained its name, because Jasper was mined there at the time of the railroad. I visited the site by boat during the end of the last drought. Dec 8, 2024 0:08:15 GMT -5

amygdule: I like Jasper

Maybe you can post some pictures here

Rockoonz: gary95340 post on the forum in the introductions, if you ask the question there we can help you get started posting with either the cloudinary for PC or the tapatalk app for apple/android. Not sure if it's even possible to post pics in the shout-box. Dec 10, 2024 11:17:30 GMT -5

gary95340: Easy answer, go to FLICKR.COM. In the search bar enter “Jasper claim” that’s my name on that site. All photos were uploaded by me, years ago. Should be 64 photos, Helen Trumbull shows 4 photos. If you search Hornitos jasper you’ll see some jewelry I made, Dec 10, 2024 23:30:23 GMT -5
