Yes they are Pappy!  I first met Bob and his family 3 years ago in Stockton, CA at the Way Out West Championship that they sponsored.  Visited with Matt, "M in MAK", today ... what a fine young man!

You're welcome.  Bob explained the precision work on the MAKs, the laser & computer machines, etc but I don't know enough about any of those to do them any justice.  I do remember that their precision/tolerance is less than the width of a human hair.  Maybe "M" in MAK will do it more justice  :)
