Alright, I’m sold. Bottlehead it is. Agreed that the experience and skill set are worth it all on their own. I’m not sure how ‘handy’ he is and I am certain he’s never even seen a soldering iron. The bragging rights of high end DIY amongst his friends has to be worth a bit also. I’ll bring it up to him and gauge his interest is this type of project. I don’t want to force him into any avenues he’s not totally invested in. Everyone’s gracious donation proposals are really quite moving and enormously appreciated. I have no issue making the project accessible for him monetarily and would enjoy doing so if required…my initial reluctance stems from the desire for him to budget, save, prioritize and appreciate the purchase rather than have it just handed over.
You guys and gals really are a fine group and I feel a bit guilty for not taking a larger part in the community over the years. I’ve been a lurker and infrequent commentator for almost a decade. The knowledge base and experience contained here is immeasurable.
