No right now I am going around with disability. Between the PTSD and the crippling problems I am having with my hands the Drs won't clear me to go back to work, and SS disability is being..... well they are SS.

I have done a few shows since April, bought a couple of guns, sold a couple and built several. Started my shop building at the farm. Got a mid 70s R1 Bridgeport with a wheel to adjust the speed and a 48 inch motorized table plus a surface grinder, with a lathe the metal part will just about be done, the wood shop needs a belt driven cast iron top table saw and it will be tooled up. The vault is 8x16 and I need a door for it to be built like I want. The reloading room will be big enough to setup my 6 presses, now i only have 4 setup. I will build my cabinets and shelving. I will also install a big air compressor with a whole building PVC air delivery piping setup. But my real dream item is coming, a barred window facing down my 200 meter rifle range right off the end of the reloading bench. I am just waiting on a second bid.
I built two 1911s for a couple of our operators. I have not heard from one in over a month. Hope he is not in the dark continent. Oh, I ran into a guy, retired truck driver, that was buying AA powder back when it was dollars a pound. He was picking it up and storing it in his basement. Bought an 8 pounder of 1680 for $100. Was the only powder he had that I was using. Perhaps I will see him again in Oct. Ed
