Yeah Gary, that's what he's saying......and I was saying "that's insane", until I remembered my friend Ed Ruszczyk in Brunswick Me., using a "Jeweler's screw plate" to thread the eyebolts for the rigging on his 1/96 scale scratchbuilt clipper ship!!
Bernard, I am beginning to realize that I may not live long enough to reach the level of craftsmanship I see in your work.
I will count, among my blessings, that I did live long enough to have been able to see it here.
We always learn far more from our own mistakes, than we will ever learn from another's advice.
The greatest place to live life, is on the sharp leading edge of a learning curve.
Lead me not into temptation.....I can find it myself!
