Great Idea John, it certainly has merit... I will contact you further on this.. Vlim, I would love the print of the 1900 mainspring... , and I also appreciate the list of desired items... If i commit to making a part, I usually make / have a minimum of 100, and a max of 1000, the reason is, fixtures and tooling are the same for 1 quality part, as they are for a 1000... but, making 1000 parts by hand is like a life sentence!!!

If i do make some of the above mentioned items, they will be my best effort, either in the prints i submit, or the hand work i do... to arrive at a quality replacement part... (I prefer this to repro..)

best to all, til...lat'r....GT
