Jim,
Glad to see that it survived :-) My T32 was secondhand so vintage
unknown but it has given me good service over the couple of years I have
used it. The BG2 is a more recent purchase and I'm quite taken with it,
although I always use the cable tie now.
I only had a T20 previously so theOM4, T32 & BG2 + T20 on hostshoe and
winder make a formidable looking (and heavy) combo.
