Hey Ira, can you make one of these?

Now that's throwing down a challenge.
Who has that kind of free time? I don't even have time to do the things I need or want to do like refurbishing all my boomers.

that would sure put ira out of buisness

once upon a time --
|-)
i had a wooden model making business--
used milling machines and lathes on rock maple...

the models were 99.8 % accurate so
the inventors/manufactures could show their customers a good preview
at trade shows and sales meeings

then --my dimensions etc were used to make the actual steel molds
for the production runs
-----------------------------------------------------
even what appeared to be simple little parts --
often took an entire day --or week -
to get them right

could never charge $$ anywhere near for the real time involved-

so - it was more like a hobby than a successful business
