The Barn and Crystal Farm's

Built in the 1930's after a fire destroyed the first barn. . .lumber was taken from the woods on Block's Point cut from the saw mill.
My Dad "Robert Larson" made comment many times that he and his Sister "Joy Edwards" sat in the lawn and watched the builders erect the new barn (at this time my Dad was only 6 or 7 years old). . .Robert Larson said that this was the first time he met Herb Volk from St. Peter. He was one of the young men erecting the barn.

South Point's new WL 2010 Drag King

The new WL 2010 Drag King being tested by the Lead Engineer, Ken Weertz after the 1st stage of manufacturing was complete. The WL 2010 Drag King was design using two W8 x 15 beams with stabilizing/skid angles to maintain proper material drop off at low elevations in the road during operation.
After 20 minutes of planning. . .Manufacturing Specialist Dale Larson performed the welding, while the Lead Engineer took on the roll as Senior Quality Control Manager to ensure proper weldments were to specification. Careful measurements were taken and a super structure jig was used to speed up the manufacturing process.
There are no plans for the Patent as of yet. . .3 years of testing on the South Point road will be required before all of the field testing including the Solid Works models can be submitted.
