Here's a picture of my Austrian Derringer.

It looks big in the picture, but it's small (really really small).

Dude is that a freakin' DIME???.....whatever size the coin is , you are the man......

I've spent a lot of time on the Craftsmanship Museum website, and its really quite humbling. There are a few guys building some magnificent cars...not to mention engines. the Mercer Raceabout is real piece of work.

Mike, count me in if you can set up a private tour at the Craftsmanhip Museum. A couple of weeks notice is all that's needed.

I can set up a private tour of the Jack Daniel's Distillery in Lynchburg (pop 361), Tenn., USA if there is interest. It's a really cool tour and the TN hospitallity can't be beat.

How about Drags in Celina Ohio?

Jet Boat Rides in New Zealand?

Great White Shark baiting in Australia?

Of Course, we can all discuss Quarter Scale Cars at the same time...

I've been lobbying for a "Quarterscale Legends" get-together for a long time now. Once a year, a show-n-shine, parts swap meet, and fun run in some place that's got some motorsports history.

For it's central location, the historic speedway, and the number of real racing shops around, I'd love to see us get together in Indianapolis.

Yes.

It's the Joe Martin Foundation for Exceptional Craftsmanship's Museum:

Joe Martin is the president and owner of Sherline Products Inc. an American manufacturer of precision machine tools.

"Joe Martin with the Sherline lathe and mill. The sale of Sherline tools provides the main funding to support the Foundation and museum. This assures its continued operation into the future."
