You're good with wood. How 'bout making one of these for me in your spare time. (Watch the vid.)

Funny you should mention that, I did something like that yesterday after my nap.

I didn't think of that automatic easel though, that's a nice touch.

Mines a little more ornate and fancier but that fella knew what he was about.

In place of the ink mag well, I left the ink off and just had it present 12 1911 mags. A nice touch I thought.

Seriously, well I don't do serious but craftsmanship like that I fear is nearly extinct. Wonder how much time that old boy had into that, me thinks long long time.

A long, long, long, time. And he didn't use power tools. I thought you might like that.
