To all,
I just want to let everyone know, That I had a great time with Butch this past weekend! I got the grand tour of the shop, along with the grand tour of Boron, Ca.
In my opinion, Butch is first class all the way.
As to the wood blank, Clark and Butch had been communicating via Email about the wood for the stock. I had downloaded pictuires from Clark to take with me. Butch showed me his stack of wood during my tour, and I figured I'd be there for at least a couple of hours,looking at wood! Butch already had this blank picked out based on the Email swapped with Clark! I looked at the blank and then at Clarks pictures that I had Brought along and BINGO we had a match.
I can't say enough about the experience I had working with Butch! He is truely a great person and an exceptional world class craftsman!

My best to all,
