Matt Tisdale sent over some pictures of his Magee Wire Edge machine in action.

From Matt
"I finally fired up the 1947 Magee wire edge machine to gain knowledge, and practice for the wire edge on the command car and our Power Wagon front fenders, along with some custom one off stuff I'm working on.

After 5 passes and some common sense its about 50% machine and 50% operator. I wired it up to a variable frequency drive and I'm running it about 13 hertz. Its amazing how much slower you can run and with a lot more control.

The machine is set to run one mile of wire in a 8 hour work day. That's a lot of doing. Anyway take a peek at these two pictures and share them and the write up on the forum, I'm sure some of the guys will get a kick out of it. Looking like 6 more weeks on the front fenders then maybe perfect rears or door skins, I'm not stopping until the entire truck is reproduced in accurate and high quality standards."

Thanks,

Matt Tisdale
