  • I believe this is Peter Wood pressing the buttons of this Solder Extrusion Press. Pete worked in Hyd 2 and mostly always as you will see, wore a tie.

  • Hi Jim!  You are quite correct. Nice to see you are still helping us out with identification of our former colleagues. I remember that Pete was always very willing to pass on his knowledge and skills to others. One of the best!   John B
