Hi Unregistered,

On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...

So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.

Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...

I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..

John D.

Looking for a machinist to make 8ga wad fingers for a MEC

The two men who have developed the MEC tooling for 8ga utilizing a MEC Jr. press have run into an issue with finding a source to manufacture wad fingers for the mec press (they are out of stock). I volunteered to post the request on a couple of gun boards to see if we can find a retired/hobbyist machinist willing to take on the project. I have a 3D drawing of the part. If you or someone you would recommend may be interested please PM me. Looks to be a fairly simple part machined from Dylrin, nylon or what ever would be recommended. The quantity would be small say 100 to 200 parts.
