Default Parker Assessment In Maine
I am wondering if anyone knows who I might be able to take my 1881 Parker hammer pull to be looked at for safety and overall evaluation?
Thank you,
Chris

Steve Dalzell is David Trevallion’s protégé in Southern Maine. I don’t know Steve’s contact information but if you want it I’ll contact Dave and get it.

Thanks Dean. I live in Stow, which neighbors Fryeburg on the western edge near Conway, NH.

Hey Chris,
I’m in near Sebago and am willing to make a quick assessment if you’d like.
