Hi

A slightly different thread for Firth Vickers Stainless Steel may be of interest to someone! Watching the Winter Olympics Bobsleigh reminds me that my late father, Albert May, and his fellow blacksmith colleagues made the runners for British bobsleigh sleds when the company sponsored the British teams taking part in competitions on the Cresta Run perhaps in the late 40s to 50s. Stainless steel was perfect for the runners as I was to experience on my little sledge which everyone wanted a ride on !!! Great days!
