[If Mr. Danner does as good a restoration job for less money and more quickly than Thor, more power to him. In the years to come, if he maintains that level of quality and service, maybe he will earn the reputation and following that Thor has and his work will be in such demand that he too will have extended turn-around times. Perhaps, if that day comes, a "Danner restoration" will mean as much to luger collectors as a "Thor" restoration does now; but throwing rocks at a man whose work is so highly respected and in such high demand that he actually has to turn work away seems ill conceived and maybe just a little mean spirited.

Thor is lucky to have a friend like you, but I'm trying to educate people as to what they can expect before they throw their money on the table, you are right patience is a virtue I no longer possess, as for Mr. Danner.
I'm not aware if you know who John Martz is, but chances are if you own one of his guns, it was blued by Charles Danner, he is no new kid on the block.
