Looks like you have his name now 😃

Need you rested and healed so you can come up here and put coils to soils! And for any of you that haven't bought "The Nugget Shooters Field Guide", you're missing out on one of the best books on the subject. I mean that. Give me a call RT, we can catch up!

" It has cams that do not twist the rod when you twist the cam, making positioning easier than I would have anticipated. I do not miss alignment holes at all, and sometimes a weird angle is nice, like on a side hill." I was happy to read about this feature.

Glasswalker- that was super informative. Thanks for taking the time to write it.

Thanks Goldpick! Appreciate you taking the time to write such a thoughtful response. Appreciate ya! -Bryan

Curious to your thoughts on the LiPo batteries contained within the Nokta machines. They (Lithium Polymer batteries) are a wild breed in many formats and within the RC community tales of exploding fire batteries are not uncommon. They have special regulations regarding transport/shipment (especially within aircraft) and I've read they can be extremely fickle in regards to charging/storage. I'm only looking for input on the batteries themselves. The product line is amazing and what you get for the price is impressive (SIMPLEX!) and not in question. Hope everyone is well! -Bryan

i purchased a copy from Reese several weeks ago and love it. showed a friend and he ordered 4 copies. 1 for him and 3 for gifts. fantastic book! not to mention Reese is pretty alright too 😜

many many years ago while driving to work before sunrise in las vegas, i watched a meteor come down and hit in the parking lot of the mandalay bay casino. it was baseball sized (roughly) on impact. wish i could have pulled in and done a quick look but bills needed paying and trying to explain to the boss that i was late because of (insert crazy story) didn't sound like a good idea. -bryan

agreed.

no, but the subject is interesting enough to me that i think that has magazine article written all over it! -bryan
