Awesome job, I really enjoyed reading your post. When I retire in a couple years I would like to take on a project like you have. I can tell by reading your post that you where getting lots of enjoyment,even when things didn’t go to plan. Great job, and a very nice show piece.

Hi Didd.

You are right, that was a perfect project for a retiree.

When you have plenty of time you can concentrate on one thing and go for it.

I am pretty sure that you will enjoy too in a few years.

Congratulations on seeing the project through to a fully functional air pistol.
I knew you could do it. :D

Hi Leonardj.

Thanks.

I am happy that it finally worked, it has been quite an adventure.

I think I will keep quiet for a little while, enjoy the sun on my back porch to read some books and shoot my old/new toy to do some damage to the pop cans population.

Thanks Tom.

Keep in mind that I am retired so I am not a young pup. This means that I had time to accumulate some skills, nevertheless there is always something new to learn.

Depending where you are in your life you may have more or less time to develop the abilities but the important thing is to start.

Enjoy.
