    It did, and while you were napping Trump finished his two Presidential terms, opened a resort on Mars, sold Iran to the Chinese, bought Russia and made it a golf course, and the lawyers are still making hay off the whole VW thing. Other than that, you haven't missed much. :mrgreen:

    TWM? He's like the Usain Bolt of Restorations: - He's in a field ALL his own. "Can't Nobody" touch that guy!

    Man, TWM, you're work always looks just SO absolutely perfect, that I think I'm going to cry out of sheer happiness or something.

    My New Project - 1942 Ford GPW

    You bet; and I get it, absolutely. Real short story: - I used to work with another carpenter (we covered it all: framing, finishing, flooring, even some roofing). - He owned a little plug-in branding iron that he used to mark the inside of cabinets that we built, with his "brand". - Well...

    I ran a few searches through Google, but no luck. It seems to be more than just a copyright mark; almost like it was a matter of pride or something. There has to be a good story behind the stamping practice, and I'll try a few other leads for the explanation.

    It wasn't a problem; I used my left eye to read one and my right eye to read the other: - That way I got twice as much out of your post. :mrgreen:

    I have no doubt that Tinwoodsman would assemble a qualified team of specialists to join him for the precision undertaking: https://youtu.be/VDYautIQaEU

    No kidding, TWM, your shop is SO clean, it looks like you're working in a Clean Room or a Hospital Operating Room or something. Got to start calling you Doctor "T".

    Wow. Now THAT is some Prime Product right there. I made an ANAL-y-sis, and the results from the lab are conclusive: - "It Don't Get Better Than That". Clinically proven. :jumpin:

    Those automobiles from the 60's, those were real CARS; hard not to love 'em: - Good Ol' Solid Detroit Steel Love to see a photo of that item if possible when you finish. Oh, Please!?

    I don't think the 1942 models were built with as much care. You sure do have a fine view up there on the hill. That's a right pretty spot. I bet the thunderstorms are a sight.:beer:

    Is that the model: - With, or - Without The twin-opposed muffler bearings?

    My New Project - 1942 Ford GPW

    It cannot be denied, TWM: you always set the golden standard for how it should be done; no kidding. [thumbzup] What's that up on the wall in the back of the shop, is that a vacuum system or something?

    My New Project - 1942 Ford GPW

    I never knew about that detail until you mentioned it here in this thread. That is very cool. I wonder if anybody else was doing this, or if that is strictly a Ford thing; any idea about that?

    My New Project - 1942 Ford GPW

    No kidding; all that product looks like it just came fresh off the factory floor. That is impressive, TWM. Wow.
