Sucks, but that’s just how it is. If he’s driven by passion, well, that’s an entirely different thing altogether and, good luck to your friend!

Scot, he owns a machine shop and already makes parts for other manufacturer's vintage doubles. Making more parts is not a problem for him. I know there are other fine craftsmen on here who already make some parts. He just asked me to see if there was any need for his services for Parker Universe. Not trying to step on anyone's toes here.
