<T3 Stainless Steel Porcupine. This ferocious-looking machine bristles with Stainless Steel spikes, and for a good reason, too. It's the main drive compressor for a supersonic wind tunnel at the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics' Lewis Flight Propulsion Laboratory in Cleveland. It delivers a ton of air per second at a velocity of 1200 to 1800 miles per hour! The tunnel will test full-size turbojet and ramjet engines. It's Mowing Time Again. And a cleancutting all-steel rotary power mower like this can help you do the job faster and with less work. The all-steel deck is tough and unbreakable. The mower blade is steel, too, because steel is the only commercial metal that will take and hold a keen cutting edge. 41,000 Miles Of Wire. This picture was taken on the world-famous Mackinac Bridge, now under construction by American Bridge Division of United States Steel. The all-important main suspension cables contain 41,000 miles of %6-inch-diameter tough galvanized steel wire supplied by American Steel & Wire Division. The cables are laid four wires at a time by a traveling "spinning wheel." Each cable is over two feet in diameter and contains 12,580 wires. UNITED STATES STEEL uss AMERICAN BRIDGE . .
