What a life he lived. Never met a more generous person, giving of time, knowledge, material things all while entertaining you with his amazing adventures and quick wit. He provided one of the most memorable days of my life, starting with a VIP tour of the Tucson gold show the year GOLD was the theme, followed by a tour of the vendors in the surrounding motels. He topped off the day with a show and tell of his own of gold and meteorites, but not until I passed the initiation of sniffing and licking the Coprolite he kept near the front door.🤢 Here's a link with some surviving photos that still work. https://web.archive.org/web/20010611113323/http://www.gci-net.com/users/g/goldmaster/ We'll miss you John.

Thanks for putting up with us lurkers Steve. I don't remember if I've ever posted or not, but I do read and learn a few times a month. Later...Jim P.

Awesome gold and awesome memories, thanks George for the reminder, and thanks Steve for the opportunity. Later...Jim P.

No idea of value, but worth it's weight in gold in the right location when running correctly. The inventor and manufacturer was Dale Sweet of Chandler Arizona, USA. He passed away at 91 years in 2011. I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Sweet once about 15 years ago and was thoroughly impressed with his spirit and knowledge of most anything mechanical. Sorry, but that's about all I can contribute, hope it helps. Later...Jim P.
