Thanks Norm, I was wondering which one was you.  You are not nearly as despicable looking as Curtis told us.

Looking forward to seeing your rifle when you get it all done.

Fleener,
outward appearances can be deceiving, I am thoroughly despicable!

I'm pausing on working on the Christian's Spring rifle while I finish my Isaac Haines, so it will be a while before I work on it again.  I just don't have the discipline to work two rifles at the same time.

Cheers,

How precious it is to have fun at Norm's expense.....  8)

Curtis,  thanks much for bringing your rifle, really wanted to see it for real after seeing your photos.   Guys, it's better in real life.   BTW,  I had not problem getting back into the West Coast, picture ID and Passport, no problem.  LOL  Hank

Thanks for posting the pictures, Curtis.  It was great to be back after missing several years, and to be motivated (I hope) to finish up some old projects!

Wooden,
Good to hear you are alive and saw your smiling face in Curtis's pictures. Looked like you were doing good on your Oerter rifle! Was suppose to have eye surgery end of May but he cancelled it 2 weeks out. Maybe I will get to WKU next year. Would like to get together with everyone again. Have a great summer and shoot me an email.

I've got to go one of these years!  All of the work looks top notch.  I'm impressed with the horns especially.

You should make it a point to go next year, Singlemalt!  You would love it.

Hank, glad to hear you made it back home!

Wogden, it was good to see you back in Bowling Green.

Gary, I enjoyed meeting you and working with you in the English Sporting Gun class.  I started reading your book this week, and I have to say it is very good so far and extremely well researched!!
