Not much Brian, how bout you?
The SV is replacing the shoes on the #19. The molds are all done, the shoes just need to be cast. I'm really just the go between guy, trying to make sure we don't use the wrong metal. The plan is to just cast the shoes in iron with a little bit of other metals mixed in. The origional shoes have been tested, the new ones should be of the same composition. We really just are trying to find if there are any secrets to doing it or anything like that.
Thanks, Taylor
