   The only reason that I make the videos is because I enjoy doing it. I am not getting rich from this. I have no obligations to anybody so I have fun with it. The cool thing about making videos is that there really isn't any rules about how to do it. You make whatever you want to and people can decide to watch it or not.

Great replies by both Bill and Bob McBride in my opinion.  I wondered about the intros,  and what the phooey.  Modern artistic license at it's ? finest.  I remember one guitarist,  Robin??? I forget his last well known name came on the stage at the Academy of Music,  14th st.  Manhattan with space age sounds.  It was during the early 70's I believe and it wasn't received well.  50 years later and it's growing or has grown immensely.  I kinda enjoy it now.  In the meantime Bill,  I'm a very interested person regarding your videos.  Keep em' coming buddy.  It helps this newbie to understand what the heck is going on with a build.

   I am getting better at doing the artwork for the intros. There will be some good ones for the next series. I have a few of them finished already. Some of them are very pleasant. Some of them are very strange.

Good work Sir.  I like watching different intros except the ones where the person does it in a boring fashion.  Then they become a chore.

Back to the vid's thanks once again.

   I am. The new house is amazing. I am nearly finished setting up my workshop. It has been a lot of work. Biggest job was wiring. I had to put in 240 volt circuit for the milling machine and heater and put in lighting. I got 9 LED shop lights in there. Mounting them in a cement ceiling was tough. I am in a very small town that is perfect. I live 17 miles from the nearest traffic light now.  It is taking a while to get everything going because of the new job. I was out of town for 6 weeks for training and I am on the road a lot now. The new job is great. Except for when I get to wear a chemical suit on a hot sunny day. But then the rule of thumb is that if you can smell the chemicals you are working with, it means that your lungs are dissolving and you will be dead pretty soon.  That suit may be a miserable, but I figure it is probably a good idea to wear it.

   I got pretty much everything set up in the workshop now and I am about half way done unpacking tools and getting everything organized. Hopefully I will be able to get started on the next rifle in the first week or two of August.

Awesome. You’re about as rural as me by the sound of it. I’m looking forward to your next build.

Part 46 intro:  The angel with wings is my favorite so far.  She looks like the top of a music box and the music is spot on.  Good job Bill.
