You haven't been exagerating him a bit! A walking encyclopedia and sage wisdom too boot. We covered everything from Ammonium Nitrate to Zamboni with some Jelly Donuts tossed in for good measure.

Hiya Mike!

Now ya know whys i was so happy he took me on! Opportunity ta learn ifin there was a college course in all things about engineering&guns, i'd getta degree!

(Well, ifin i'm bright enough!) And he really is nice&caring, he jus hides it.

"(Well, ifin i'm bright enough!) And he really is nice&caring, he jus hides it."
Naw. that comes through loud and clear. Also looked at his new web site as you posted elsewhere. Likely will be seeing some pictures of his revolvers and one of them close up in the next few months.

I'm sending him my 1851 to do some work on, when it comes back I will post a bunch of pic's.

[Third_Rail]

mec, glad you liked the website - I'm the one who made it. Any suggestions - PM me!

There will be pictures forthcoming, but we have yet to take photos - Jule's wife Rachel wants to take the photos, and I've given a few words of advice (neutral background, etc.)


Thom, I have to say, you're very lucky he's taken you on as a student. I'd give up most things for that.

Thas what i tol tha wife, ya jus dont get opportunity like this everday, and she agreed and tol me ta go for it!

And ya know, he HAS been more patient and actually splainin things to me, why and what and how. Keepin a journal and notes, jus scared ta death a screwin anythin up.

And i'm SLOWLY figgerin it out that tha MANN is a hell of a guy, my mistake jus lookin at tha surface and tha way he acted at me afore.

And ya know what? You guys are a hellava fine bunch and i'm right proud ta know ya!

........Yep, sounds like a German to me :) . they tend to be private in their affairs....Kinda like people in small towns, it takes a little time for them to accept you.....How's about re-posting 'The Mann's' link?......................

[Third_Rail]

The website isn't done yet, and it's constantly changing - when it's ready, we'll post a link here, I'm certain.

Anything I can do to help out? I know i'm a long way away but if you need anything that I can do then just PM me and it's done.
Had a call from the "Boss" today and a L O N G talk, over an hour! Nice guy and likes a laugh I notice. Thom you are a lucky SOB that's all I can say - make the most of it! Practical skills are hard to find these days and with kids only wanting to watch TV, play MP3's and TALK on the phone for days they could die out altogether so pay attention and keep making those notes!

Duncan, nothing I can think of. If I do think of anything, I'll tell you! :)

No suggestions from me yet. He told me his wife has a new super camera and I'll just have to dance from one foot to the other until she starts posting pictures of some of his innovations.

[Third_Rail]

Mike, as soon as I get the pictures, I'll post them on the website and here, along with complete descriptions - Jule and I are working on this, but he's very busy for now.

I know I'm computer challenged. I accept it. I went to the website and tried to send an e-mail, got it typed but couldn't figure out how to send it. How do I go about placing a nipple order?

Steve

[Third_Rail]

Steve499, you're talking to the right guy - I can handle it. PM me your phone number, and I'll forward it to Jule; in the PM please also include which pistol you're going to use them on. :)
