Hey Billy:
I'm saving to send you my 1948 featherweight for a repaint. I just bought it and it's been totally serviced and came with a one year warranty so it doesn't need to be serviced, just stripped and painted. Well, I guess if you have to take it all apart you're gonna hafta put it back together and I guess that constitutes servicing. Oh well.
As for the centennial, I'm thinking I might try and tackle it myself following your tutorials. Which means good for me, maybe not so good for you because I will probably be pestering you with a ton of questions about it. I'm a bit timid, but willing to at least give it a shot. What's the worst that could happen? I would just have to send it to you anyway to fix what I screw up, lol!!! I will be in touch.
