Great photos, Curtis!  Thanks for all the work you do with the web site!  Many wonderful memories....  The gun building seminar at Bowling Green is a highlight of the year for me, and I would highly recommend it.  Besides the first class instruction offered, you'll meet some really wonderful people!

Nice work, Curtis! Thanks for putting this together! I'm happy to see those old '84 photos came out well.

Thanks for the photos Curtis. I've been wanting to attend for several years and just haven't been able to work it in. I will make it one of these days! In the meantime, your photos help to fuel my continued desire to increase my knowledge by learning from the very best.  Thanks again.

Thanks for the comments guys!  Ed, I couldn't say it better.  Special thanks to Gregg for loaning the 1984 photos to scan for the website.  Pushboater, I recommend you take the plunge and sign up for a class!  I came across this online article from the American Shooting Journal, perhaps it will inspire some folks to join the seminar.

Here is the link to the article: http://americanshootingjournal.com/the-art-of-longrifle-building/

Greetings Curtis,  Thanks much for the photos.  The thing that most folks don't realize is that Curtis takes time from his class to go to each class and take photos of all of us in our classes.  I wish I had photos of when I first started but that was back when 35mm was the rule. and for me drawing stick figure would have had more detail. Pushboater, you really would enjoy going to Bowling Green you learn not only from your instructor, but the students bring with them a wealth of information as you also would bring.  Curtis, I hope your retirement is greeting you with the time we want to further our art form.  Thanks for the photos.    Hank
