A BIG thanks to Charlese!!!

Post by matajugador »

I signed up for the forum a week or so ago, and immediately noted that one of the voices of experience here lived within a short distance of me.

Having inherited a 510 that had seen better days, really tearing it apart and getting back into good running order was a bit daunting.

I contacted Charlese who invited me into his workshop and took me through the machine maintenance, showing me his EXTENSIVE SS made collection along the way. Without his help I may have figured things out on my own, but seeing a SS in working order and getting an experienced walk through really changed things for me.

I heartily second the sentiment that either SS attracts great people, or Great people end up with a SS!

You guys are great!

Right on,
Charlese also helped me remotely as I was beginning in this forum, I had posted my first avatar that had an unsafe setup and he let me know very nicely so I could redo it better. As I continue on my learning quest people like this help me get past others that are no so nice about mistakes. These are the people that live here and this is why I read this forum regularly. I don't post much anymore but I do read alot.
