Johnny Buzzard was a great fiddle play using a five string specially crafted from a viola. I have jammed with him quite a few times and have always admired his talents. He was also a wonderful Christian believer and a great friend. I will miss him

Sorry to hear of the passing of Pete. He was a good person to chat with others on the old chat room. He and I and Tommy Skelton and Wayne Morgan had many good times together.
Condolences to the family

Living just 15 miles from Joe, I have visited him whenever I could and thoroughly enjoyed his jamm sessions with Ray Walker, George Wixon, and many other friends. I have missed Joe and my condolances to his family and many friends.RIP Joe!

The inevitable has happened and it is with much sadness that I recognize the passing of my good friend Bobby Bowman. I never met him in person but we spoke for hours on the SSGC and I feel like we have met. My sympathy to Toni and the family. God Bless you!

My deepest sympathy for Deb and family at this time of loss. Ray was a great guy and good friend. Ray confided in a long chat with him that he had found peace with his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and that he is now a peace. Praise God for HIS unspeakable gift!
I will miss you Ray!

Thanks for your comments Max... Just a boy and his toys I suspect. Glad you liked the bellcranks for your Carter. best wishes!

Thanks Ross. I dont know if I like it or not.

Hi Glenn:

Thanks for your comments also. I have often thought about adding some sort of sounds, and with todays electronic PICS and the like, it could be done. I have thought about lights, bells and whistles, and who knows, maybe something like that will happen. Thanks again Glenn

Thanks Brendan
I have a variety of those old favorites here too. Thanks for you comments

I have been thinking about this for 25 years or so and decided it is now or never. It has turned o...

Just a couple of thousandths clearance. Never have had any problem and it is very smooth when coming up ...

Gary: I am a retired toolmaker and have made lots and lots of parts here in my little home shop.Several lathes, a couple of mills and the usual hand tools.I have considered a CNC (maybe Tormach 1100) but not right now.
