The largest was 4.7, and I felt it here in Santa Ana.[/quote]
Come on that's just a little tremor! [/quote]
Seriously! 4.7 is a little tremor. Ahh, I remember the 7.1 in San Francisco in 1989. Now that was a shaker! All that damage in 15 seconds. Thank God it wasn't longer.

That was the longest fifteen seconds I can remember. Been there, done that, had to get another apartment.

I felt it quite strongly while checking in to Curry Village!

Yup, that one was a shaker for sure. I was in living in Santa Rosa at the time. It was the first quake I'd ever been in that lasted long enough to actually get into a doorway for protection...

Hi Andy,
if you drop by Frankfurt, give me a note so we can arrange a small TARC ("Trans-Atlantic-Ric-Confluence")
Long time ago I met Gil. Hope to see a forumite again.

Hi Peter, unfortunately, I'm just passing through Frankfurt via Continental to stay is in Mannheim, where I am right now. I leave tomorrow morning to go back to the states. It's possible I will be back in a few weeks - will for sure let you know next time!

cheers!

Yeah, so see you then!

Here's Dan S.' new AFG 620, after it's been given the "new crushed pearl inlays" treatment, alongside my own '67 625:













Obviously, the '67 is the one with the Accent. The FWCP inlays go a long way toward giving the new Rick the look and feel of the old 625! The 620 was one of the last to leave the RIC plant with the old-style non-full-width inlays, so the recesses for the new full-with inlays were cut by hand with a dovetail saw before adding the new crushed-pearl ones.

Just beautiful, Paul. Another stunning job.

Beautiful work, Paul, and nicely displayed!

Congrats Dan! Looks like you are in for a treat!

Nice! Congrats to Paul and Dan!

Yes, wonderful job! I really like those crushed pearl inlays!

Just gorgeous, Paul! Nice work, as always!

Thanks Paul!

It looks amazing. I just love the CP inlays. As always your work is amazing.

I'll play it loud and proud.

Lucky you, Dan! Enjoy it!

Sweet!!!

Nice work, Paul! As always!!!!

Congrats and enjoy, Dan!
