ESTIMATING SEMINAR

continued from page 33

The seminar participants were a mixture of newcomers to the masonry industry as well as veteran mason contractors. Eight states were represented at the meeting-Arkansas, Georgia. Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, New York, Ohio and Texas.

The course participants, a combination of young newcomers and seasoned mason contractors, openly shared their comments and views, resulting in a very enthusiastic and informative session.

The topics of discussion revolved around the widely acclaimed construction manual, Masonry Estimating For a Profit, authored by Pope and now in its second edition (revised, 1979). Each course registrant received a copy of the manual as well as various technical literature dealing with masonry construction. Those attending the seminar were:

The
Mixer You'll Never
Have to Grease!

Routine, daily maintenance costs money. It costs in labor. It costs in lost productivity. And, if you forget to do it, it can cost you a machine. Which is why we build the Model 120 Plaster and Mortar Mixer so you don't have to worry about forgetting. In fact, except for normal engine fuel and oil, you don't have to worry about daily maintenance at all!

The Model 120 is equipped with a self-adjusting, spring-loaded packing that never requires greasing. There's also a completely sealed transmission and clutch to provide positive engagement between engine and paddle-shaft. This eliminates belt slippage and the ordinary wear and tear that causes a mixer to grow old and tired. Add on Essick's standard, rugged construction and reliability and you've got the best money-making combination on the market: greater productivity and longer life.
