"KIT-CUTTER"that sounds BAD doesn't it..like some kind of bad name. Jeff is an engineer, just like you are, and thinks like an engineer, just like you do. He should not be viewed as an adversary; he doesn't view you that way.

For the most part, what we have all done on the Ed Kazmirski's Taurus thread is work together and cooperate together. When we had any information to contribute, we posted it on the thread, INCLUDING ALL THE PICTURES FROM ED'S ESTATE THAT YOU HAVE SO FREELY USED in order to make your own Simla. We could have kept the pictures to ourselves in private e-mails, but chose not to, so that everyone, (including you), can benefit.

This is a hobby, and we all share the same interests. It's not like we're talking about "industrial espionage" with patent and trade secrets at stake.

You should accept the complements of a fellow engineer, (and extremely nice guy who has no argument with you), who admires your work, and try to be helpful, as we have been helpful to you.
