As a nonagenerian, I can't remember the name of the inventer from Virginia who made some specialty tools like the points setter and sleeve presser. I think he was also a civil servant. He was a great help to me. Just curious if he is still around?

I think you are referring to Dan Allen aka TheOldHokie here.

His website is linked here. ...You can find his contact info there.

There is an illness announcement on his front page.

Don't know if there is an update.

Thanks Bruce. That is the guy I was wondering about. So helpful to me a number of times. Just wondering if he was still around; and OK?
