[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1538220, member: 2736"] What he said!!!!!! And That is coming from a true machinist and great gunsmith. Excepting nothing but your best is called Craftsmanship and that is the third element to the equation. I know master machinist that don't make good gunsmiths. I also know some gunsmiths that are not very good machinist that rely on the machine to do quality work, we all know what that leads to. So if a guy has the machine experience, understands the needs of a firearm and is a craftsman he can be a great Gunsmith if he has the desire. There is no one thing that makes a great gunsmith, it takes many things and many years of improving everything he does. In my opinion, the minute he stops learning, or trying to improve it is time to put away his tools and quit. Just My Opinion J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
