A True Craftsman in our group
 
3 Attachment(s)
I know there are a lot of the PGCA members very gifted in many aspects, but just thought I would mention Mr Edgar Spencer, and his cases, they are truly a work of art. He painstakingly measures for the just right fit and picks the wood out to look good with the gun. For a custom walnut display case you cannot go wrong with his cases. I bought a 39.00 cover for them at Jeffs Outfitters this helps keep them scratch free. I use them just for display, 3 photos included, Gary

beautiful

that gun sits well in there

Bob Hardison 10-26-2015 11:47 AM

Beautiful gun and case. I've been admiring Edgar's work along with many others here. Maybe some day I will have a Parker worthy to fit one of his cases. Bob

Paul Harm 10-26-2015 11:48 AM

Gary, what did that case cost you ?

Bob Hardison 10-26-2015 11:51 AM

I think Edgar has pricing on his website.:rolleyes: Bob

Dean Romig 10-26-2015 12:05 PM

I only wish I had a Parker nice enough to complement the work Edgar does.

I don't know Dean, a certain 16ga hammer gun comes to mind.:rolleyes:

charlie cleveland 10-26-2015 05:53 PM

those cases are works of beauty for sure...charlie

edgarspencer 10-26-2015 06:06 PM

Thank you, Gary, and thanks to all of you for your kind remarks.
The one thing I enjoy, is that so far, no two cases are alike. The guys at the hardwood supplier let me go into the stacks to hand pick my lumber, and I try to get fan and flame, at least for the tops.
I don't have a website. Probably never will either, since I hear this internet thing is just a passing fancy.

I think my website is down, or I never had one.

We should have known that Edgar can use Morse Code. It's probably as simple to him as saying "Yes Dear" to Mrs. Edgar.:whistle: Bob

edgarspencer 10-28-2015 09:19 AM

Agreed. Listening to it is intuitive, seeing it in dots and dashes is very difficult. Seeing it in phonetics is

BTW, I'm not an OM!

Only on the Parker forum can we witness such breadth of knowledge Morse code to piano stools

edgarspencer 10-28-2015 03:13 PM

Lots of Breadth, John, but not much Depth going on here.
