Stop in for a cup of coffee

So now for the big question. Long story short, my brother decided to move my 440 forged crank and in doing so, he laid it in its side. It’s been that way for I don’t know how long how, it’s wrapped in machining plastic but any chance of it being damaged from lying horizontally on a table? I’ve always heard you should store them vertically when not in the block

Yes you are supposed to store them on end, But I dont think Ive evere seen one damage from it laying down....That said...If it was going in my engine, I would have a machinist jig it up and check it.....
 
Sunday breakfast...a real heartstopper!!

Ugh this thing was freshly turned and balanced too.
 
Oh really I didn't eat that. I haven't had something like that for months.
With Cheryl's gall bladder we've both changed for the better.
We go out for breakfast, I see it, but don't miss it.
Times a changing and for the better!!

Remember how I said I’m slowly being pushed out of the family farm... it’s him. My grandfather owns it, I’ve been the care taker of it andrunning it since 2004. I actually grew up on the farm raised by my grandparents. Brother marries daughter of local vet and suddenly wants to be a farmer... after spending 15 years never once helping. Comes in this past summer and starts moving all my **** around or out. It’s gotten so bad that at one point I nearly beat him with a baseball bat.
