I work in Aviation electronics and Maintenance for the most part. However, a while ago I became a gunsmith as well on older firearms. I started with an Atlas 618 lathe for learning and making small parts. Recently a friend of mine Jim O'Hara an aeroautical engineer who had built a flyable 3/8 replica of a P-38 passed away. His family presented me with this Sheldon S-11-36 s/n SQWE 13988. It's going to take a little cleaning, but it does run!
