Appreciate the comments. I have yet to meet an unfriendly SRP member. Everyone has been helpful and supportive.

Something I didn't mention about Bob Allman, he makes razors. His garage is a shop full of tools. He has also built a number of to-scale 15th century sailing ships that are detailed and flat beautiful. He showed me about 75 razors he built that look as good as any I've seen here on SRP. If you get a chance, go to his profile page and look at his gallery. That is just a few of his razors.

Thanks again for the positive comments.
