I agree, without innovation nothing is assured except a dead end. Some of your projects have me green with envy and when Deve was fabricating his no jack shaft shifter I wanted to head to Kansas just to watch but decided no young guy wanted a gas passing 80 year old glued to his elbow offering useless advice. It seems that people who make no mistakes also make no progress. Here is a "big improvement idea" on an Arias design twin plug head that is taking it easy in the scrap bin. Learned what NOT to do. I'd give my eye teeth to have spent some time with Jerry's Dad.
