    Can't say at this point. I'm not sure it is still "contact worthy" or still able to be punched. More of a collector item at his point. I have another Nichols swivel and I wouldn't expose it to full contact either.

    But this one looks to have a decent ballhook and maybe just a few "test taps" and easy routine to check out the movement action and rebound response. I'll definitely give it a look and see, if nothing else to let others see the "action of the oldies".

    We can only hope.

        Congrats! Nice piece of memorabilia.

        Shame there won't likely be another major update to the bible, but understand the whole cost / reward calculation. Have you seen the interactive textbooks they are making on iPad? text with videos and diagrams integrated. Would be a great way to do another edition, albeit with a fair amount of work.

          I haven't seen them but have heard about them. I would like an interactive book, especially with associated audio when reading certain text. I fear that would take more computer expertise than I have.
