Col..
I have admired your work for years and your workman ship is so professional I must ask about your background..Curiosity has gotten the better of me..We had another "Col" before he passed away this year in his seventies or early eighties..He was a master fabricator and machinist..could spray paint and do any kind of repair or fabricate out of any kind of material..leather ,wood ,steel ..he had a pretty complete machine shop and mill .,lathes,welders spray booth and we lost a great friend to MLU when we lost Greg Anderson..Greg was a super guy and would and did help so many people ..and was a master gunsmith and watch maker..
What he did for a living to support his hobbies....a lawyer.,..
And He told me when he was young he was always fixing up old Fords and Chevs but his father and mother made him get an education so went into law..he told me he did enough legal work to support his family and his hobbies but he much preferred his hobbies..
What a guy...!!
It would not surprise me to learn that you are a trained something or other than what you appear to be ..machinist...fabricator ..welder..engineer..or a combination of all ..anyway your workmanship is top cabin...
keep the pictures coming..
