       Boy am I ever glad I made my Chin Pillow a few years back while watching John Teresi do one of his builds. Now days there's a list of people I haul the pillow out for before viewing their posts. The Pillow keeps me from brusing or breaking my Chin when it smacks against the Floor when viewing In Progress or Under Glass images from you folks. 'Bout all I can do is studder and reattach my Jaw.................

With this clutch assembly, you have Surpassed the Unsurpassable. 

You not only Thought Out of the Box, you teleported the Box into the 4th Dimension.

Although I rarely give these out, I can't believe I haven't given you one of these before.

Whatever the case, 1st or 2nd time, well deserved.

Astounding work Dave, Astounding.

attempted to replicate a meziere starter.

Well, only because it looks exactly like a Meziere starter, I'm going to say, "Mission Accomplished."

But only because it looks exactly like it, and no other reason.

You're on a real tear here Dave.  I'm not going to say "more please" but IF you should feel so compelled, well, I won't complain.   cheers sir!
