Haven't heard "boo" from him in many years.  I even reached out with an email with no answer.  I hope he's okay!

Update (kind of)  on Fletcher
In about 2016 he purchased Ol' Thunder Manufacturing from me and located it in Montana with his archery business.
Last year he sold the bore solvent portion of the business to my good friend Shannon Kirby, which he added to his business, Smoke and Thunder.  So, a year ago +/- he was well and kicking.
Since then, ?????????????????????????????  Not a clue.

I've not seen him at any of the local rendezvous for a couple years. Heard a rumor he had went over to the renaissance fairs. They have more money!
