[TheForge] CoSIRA Drawings? Still available?

Sun Apr 28 07:05:01 2002

Thanks Norm, Bob, and all others.  Yes, this is the information I needed.  I
wanted to get the latest printing of these books, but wanted to make sure
the drawings and plans were also still available.  Looks like they are.

I have an old copy of the book (1976) and used one of their drawings from it
about 20 years ago.  Since that time, the drawing was loaned out and never
returned.  (You know how that goes!)

For any new Smiths and first time gate builders, etc., I would recommend the
books and drawings highly.

Norm, I take it you carry the books?  I'll contact you off-line.
