In a few cases, I've gone into town and had a cup of coffee, and come right back. He's not so good in the communications department, and despite carrying his house phone in his pocket, he never answers after 8 AM.
I was very unhappy with what I ended up with on the last set, and his answer was that my bore gauge must be off. I figure if I ever work with him again, I'll just tell him how much to take out, not what the final measurement I wanted.
I honestly think he's good, but a little awkward to talk to.

I may be the one who gave you that bit of advice Edgar. I have dropped off gthree different sets of barrels at Mike's and he suggested he'd have them done pretty quickly if I wanted to go into town foe a bite to eat and a coffee and the barrels would be done by the time I got back... and they were.
