Points well made and well taken, LeFusil. There's a lot of "that was then, this is now" involved with what you say. We have to deal with the guys who do the work on this side of the pond. This isn't England, Italy, Germany, or Spain. And the finished product I've seen from some of the stockers here is pure art to my eye, but maybe not to yours. Regardless, it is what it is. If JHolland or anyone else can't or won't step up and pay the rate, they should quit bitching and figure out something else. There are those waiting in line who will, much to the chagrin of the complainers. I'm just thankful I don't have the want or need for any of this kind of work being done because I'm not willing to pay for it, nor justify doing it in the first place.
