It's very difficult to read your response...I just had eye surgery on good eye...the good news is that I'm getting a DaVinci device in about a week and I'll be able to read and smith again...I will read carefully and respond then...
O.T. I have unpublished manuscript that was written by an agriculture historian that happens to be a biography of sorts of Fred Adolph...I have't read it in 35 years (can't read it now...yet)...the authors name was Ward O'Hara...I didn't write it so I can't defend it from website bullies who will roast someones entire postings on a misspelled French proper noun...what I'm asking is, is it safe to post controversial information here? I remember a member accusing you of being on LSD for your damascus to Arabic writing observation...I mean who needs it?...I would like to post the raw information for all the great members but for the playground bullies...like the ones who chased Johan Fanzoi away

To post or not to post? what's your opinion please ?

Interesting Robert! This Ward O'Hara?

Possibly The Double Gun Journal would be interested in publishing the manuscript, if not under copyright, with your additional comments? There will need to be some good images to accompany the article.

Good idea Drew,
I was trying to do something good for all the good/great members without getting into a hastle with the well known trolls...even some of the well respected members play thier cards close to the vest...in other words, the more they know and the less everyone else knows, the better off they are...go back and read the Joy
e Loy engraving thread to see what size sharks are here...they know Joe Loy's secret signature, but they will not share with the other members...

I don't want to be one of those, I want to be like you and ellnbr who freely share knowledge...I guess I'll have to look for something else to contribute here...thanks

Google translate is OK but misses some of the technical terms
