Once upon a time, oh about seven or eight years ago, I spent a couple of
days in a junior college theatre near Cleveland, welding additional
spreader plates into the arbors in their double-purchase counterweight
system at the behest of Uncle Bill...
I cannot begin to tell you how lousy an idea doing any welding on a
counterweight system is.
