Welcome, recent seattle transplant. Are you in blaine or bellingham

Ah, well being right minded from the get-go, I know to stay far, far away from certain "brands".

The only picture you'll get in the next two weeks or so is a disassemble while awaiting some parts. Nothing major, I like to think of it as routine maintenance that wasn't performed correctly by previous owners or perhaps too much stone. Whatever, a good friend is helping me restore the CBOB to correct function. The problem is posted in a thread over in the Dremel forum.

I'm about 20 miles south of the border, in Bellingham. I work as a backup Range Officer out at Custer Sportsmen Club on the weekends and vacation fill-ins, just south of Blaine---so you had me figured out. Did I happen to mention it's good to be retired? I don't call the weekend work really "work". Just signing up potential new members, making sure everyone is safe on the front line, participating in serious and not so serious discussions of whatever happens to capture our attention at the moment. Others might call these sessions. Knew I could work that little fella into the thread, somehow. If you're ever up this way, with an urge to try a different range, drop on by, we may not be the fanciest range but we're sure dang friendly. Well, maybe not guite that friendly.
