Last evening, Sept. 5, 2024, Crawford Lodge 234 held its regular Stated Meeting at the Sippy Historic Machine Shop on Route 198 west of Saegertown, PA. After the brief meeting, Bro. Lon Sippy gave the members a tour of his historic machine shop and took us back in time as he showed us the history of the tool and die industry in Crawford County. We were all amazed at the engineering and skill involved in making these amazing machines at a time when precision lasers, CNC, wire EDM, etc were not even invented yet. Thank you so much, Bro. Sippy for an educational exhibit that none of us will ever forgot!
