Thanks Jim, your check is in the mail. Come to think of it, Pegi, Greg's wife has been waiting on her check for several months now! :)) :)) So, don't look in the mail just yet! =))

Ralph,

Glad you enjoyed it! I have one more coming. It's an Ebay item I bought (PFM SRR, MS-2 Mikado) and another brass basket case. I'll post it later this month. I paid about $100 for it, made the repairs, put it back on Ebay and sold it for just under $700.00. :-bd :-bd

Just don't start another project for MASSIVE RALPH that includes a lot of wire and solder.
You'll have him slobbering all over all of us! :twisted: :twisted:

I slobber at all the wonderfull work presented here on this forum. Someday I will be that good. Tom, more please. I am a glutton for your kind of punishment. As for Dave's comment, I just make sure the electrons all run downhill. It's kind of like plumbing.
