All top quality too..... :ddb:

The gift bearer popped back last night.... :)

We talked some and I showed him my parts of the "Bogs" engine build. The chap is a machine engineer and was well impressed, even quite surprised.
Esp when I showed him the half shaft die holder.

Showing that you can actually make some things and have a genuine use seemed to really help perk up his interest.... :ddb:

It nice that they stopped back and you didn't find out later that it was some body ditching the loot when on the run from the Coppers. And return to claim it and more later. :bugeye:

Looked out the door wall one morning, and two Sheriff's deputies were rounding the shop's corner. when Inquiring if I could be of some assistance they said, that if I find a handgun to call them. As one was deposited in the general area of my property. Could have been thrown over the privacy wood fence. It was found in the bushes out front for easy retrieval at a late time.
