Why is it that we all know of somebody (meaning old fart) that does magic like this? We had an off highway log truck with a too tall load bend a through truss steel bridge back in the early 70s. this old fart comes out with a bunch or rosebuds and soapstone. We provided the oxygen and acetylene and the labor, he would mark a pattern and we would follow it about 5 of us. three days later the bridge was straight and good as new. Old farts rule!:drinkup
