Is the water the description states they are dipped in a preservative? Any idea whether it is Eddystone, Remington or Winchester?

Thanks for posting those! Wow! What a time capsule not just for technology but the way people worked & lived. (Or, if OSHA sees these clips, there will be suits filed retroactively!)

Thanks for the links, Mr. Petrov. I've already "stolen" one link for a thread in the L-E forum. With due credit.

I'm glad you saw this posting by Michael. I saw it on Jouster earlier and thought of you. You like being in a machine shop, what did you think of the size of the polishing wheels they were using on the bolts?? And I thought my 10" one was big !! I liked looking at the machining operations they showed. That stuff facinates me also.

Did you view the link on the Watering Hole forum a while back about how they make Zeiss scopes?


Y'all have a good weekend,
