They say you always remember your first time

[Jim Boyd]

Well at the age of 47 I finally had my first screw Here is a pic


I made it to fit this, my almost completed smoother.

Beautiful engineering

Looking good Jim! Hey you got all the hard stuff done so what’s the problem? Should have the rest done in a day or two! So quit “Screwing” around and get to it!

Pretty impressive for a North Texas guy!

Congratulations! Now that you have done that, all you need are some steel or brass rods for all the screws you will ever need!
