Stopped by to see Ed Snyder of Pennsylvania to meet him and check out his Cart parts. Spent about three hours there. Very hospitable and talented Machinist.
His number is 215-257-2422 wouldn't hurt to say I sent you but not important.
Took a few photos of his handiwork. For the time being he is still making Cart Parts but you never know how much longer so while I was there it seemed like a good opportunity to pick up a Drawbar.

Did you put a 1 in front. 1-215-257-2422. Ed does not like to ship overseas. Had a bad experience from an overseas Post Office. I have been a free middleman in the past. You call Ed, send him the money, he sends me the parts, and I send them to you. Its just an option for you. Never know you might call and he has a soft spot for France. I'm kind of like Eds unpaid silent partner. Wouldnt want to forget Claude Mourey, he is also a silent partner of Eds.
Ed a nice guy who puts out a quality product and I don't mind helping. He does not use the internet.
There is a possibility I might be going to his place again in Sept or Oct. I would be able to save you shipping fees to my house.
Just let me know if I can help. I called him on the phone a month ago and he was still there.

Re: Visit to Ed Snyders Hand Cart parts maker.
hello Graig , i appreciate the time you spent to help
no great deal because i have got one 40 feet container leaving Chattanooga Tn every month for my business then there is always enough room for my hobby and for the parts i love
In fact from France i have had 001 and the number and it says " unknown number "
anyway if you can buy these parts for me it would be great to have 3 sets of cast iron parts
Of course you are welcome to france if you decide on of these days going to Normandy or somewhere else
i have just bought one more hand cart on ebay few weeks ago at Plano texas
take care
jean

Hello Jean Georges.
I found a hand cart M3A4, but whitout the handle bar and the towing eye.
Can you help me?
