All right! All right. Cherry pips at 2 meters. Take two paces, turn and fire.

Richard,

I'd be hard pressed to see those component let alone try to machine them. You've blown my hair back, way back ! Fine detail and as RV said you've amazed us all yet again.

L.P.

DAMN ....... that is some fine workmanship! Well done, doesn't come close to how I'd like to compliment you, but it is the best I can come up with. That is some serious wood and metal work.

Ever consider going into ship modelling?

Bob
