Update:
Well, as some of you may know from going to Earl's Web-Site he has closed his shop due to health reasons. I was so sad to hear that. But his health has to come first. My prayers remain with him and his Family always.
Earl was my go-to Gunsmith - for everything !! I feel lost witout him. His COMBINATION of skills will be difficult to locate with one person. I guess I was spoiled knowing Earl. All the lock work, even lock re-building. Restoration work on complete guns. Even making mainsprings and tumblers. And little stuff like making small diameter iron rings. He was very clever at coming up with stuff I could not readily purchase.
So, I will have to go searching for someone else with a similar skill set. Maybe two or three people with different skill sets (?).
Maybe one of you Forum members can provide a lead for me? Thanks.
