Jackie ! Jackie, glad to hear you are okay. If you are showing no symptoms by now, I think you can breathe easy about the virus test. Best regards, Gene Beggs

Hey Jackie Your friends are anxiously waiting to hear about the results of your Corona virus test. The last we heard, you were waiting for your number to be called for testing. Hope they didn't lock you away in one of those ships that you work on. Let us know with just a note saying you are...

I'm with you Hunter. I've been worried about Jackie and have been monitoring this forum all day. Hope he is okay and his test results were negative. The medical community is so overwhelmed at this time it may take more than two days to get results. Hope you have fully recovered from your...

Ol' Beggs again. Justin, as so many others have said so well, I wanted to add my best wishes to you and your wife as you go about recovering from this darn virus. You have a wonderful sense of humor and I admire you for continuing to show it. You're a better man than I am to always retain...

Hi Jerry I'm still alive and kickin' ! Thanks for checking on me, I'm doing fine. This sheltering in place is actually right up my alley. I've always had somewhat of a lazy streak and it gets worse the older I get. I still get out every day for a while if for nothing more than to go to...

It is very important to get acquainted with others that shoot benchrest in your area. It may be necessary to drive a bit to where matches are being held. You will need some help to get started. As far as what you call 'the mother load of information' you will find 99 percent of it in two...

Technology Overload Jackie, I've spent hours watching the sites you provided on how the engine blocks, heads, cams, lifters etc., are made. Man, the drag racing world has come light years from its beginnings. It's a whole nuther' world ! Looking at the equipment in those shops makes a...

Ol' Beggs again. Hey Jackie Just looking at the pictures and reading descriptions of the hotrods that you, Al Nyhus and others build is scary ! I find it all very interesting but even when I was a young man, I would have never ventured into such even if I could have afforded it. State of...

Ol' Beggs again. Howdy Mike, Glad you joined the discussion. :D BTW guys, if you don't know Mike Ezell you sure need to get acquainted with him and pay close attention to what he says. I've been experimenting with tuners ever since I built the tunnel back in 2003. I credit Mike Ezell...

Ol' Beggs again. Wally, not having a 200 yard range to practice on is not that big of a deal. The change in tune from 100 to 200 yards is only a small change; maybe .3 to .6 up or down on the powder charge or 1 or 2 clicks on the tuner. It doesn't require you to start from scratch...

Ol' Beggs again. Wally, I'll let you in on a little secret that will make a world of difference in your 200 yard aggs. Maybe no one has told you about it but you can bet your boots, those that consistently place in the winner's circle understand it perfectly. :eek: "So why would you tell...

Wow ! Paul, during my 31 years of association with short range group shooting, I don't ever remember anyone doing what you did during the nationals! Absolutely unbelievable ! And you did it under the most difficult wind conditions the Ben Avery range can dish up. Congratulations sir. Well...

Odorless mineral spirits, available at most home improvement centers that sell paint and other supplies. Works well for me. Gene Beggs

Good for you Pete. All good choices. Enjoy Gene Beggs

Hello Mike and thanks for your concern. Yes, my family and I are fine after the horrific mass shooting here in Odessa, TX yesterday afternoon; although, my wife was very near the chaos. The mall in which she was locked down for hours was very near the shooting. Law enforcement did a good job...

Right On ! Well done sir! Thank you. Gene Beggs

You da' man, Jackie Jackie, compared to some of the things you work on with those ships, this was a piece of cake. Takes a braver, tougher man than I am to tackle such. I sure enjoy reading your posts and appreciate you taking the time to share them with the rest of us. Gene Beggs

Francis, I no longer build the Wind Probes. I still provide parts and service. Gene Beggs

Things to avoid when you're over seventy Glenn, you've got a good sense of humor. I can see how reviving ones libido which has been dormant for years could lead to trouble given all these terrific looking young women out there today that are so happy to flaunt everything they've got but not...

Well done Bob Scarborough ! Bob, like Jackie Schmidt said in his post above, conditions must have been very challenging. Good job. Hang in there. Gene Beggs
