Sent you a PM earlier, I've got an old Black & Decker drill sharpener I don't need if you haven't gotten your Drill Doctor yet - :-)

Looking forward to seeing your ideas. GC's are getting too doggone expensive to buy anymore and would be nice to be able to make some without having to bid on a GC maker on eBay. Guy won't sell 'em outright, only places them up for bids. As un-gun friendly as eBay is, I don't plan on them getting a cut of my money.

PatMarlin sells a checkmaker outright. I have one on order, still waiting for it but have used checks made from it (thanks Mugs) and they work really good.

Thanks,
I discovered Pat's posts shortly after I posted here. I also have one on order. Looks like about another month before he catches up on previous orders and gets mine out the door.

it has been put on the back burner for a short while, I am still working on it,I have to find the best sourse for cheap componets.also to figure out the sizes for the differant cals. the wife has been ill for a while,she had a double bypass last week,but now she has a blood clot in her left lung.the good thing is she is a cardiac R.N so she knows how to handel the problem.

Hey Ed,

Sorry to hear you're wife is ill. But as you stated, she knows best what to do and will mend in time. Obviously all other matters take second place, so whenever you can get back to this will be soon enough ;^ )

Take good care of both of you!

Ed, I wish your wife a speedy recovery....and being a nurse, she will know the importance of doing what the DR. ordered...

Wish her well for me., Guy
