P-Tn PROFESSIONAL HISTORY
STEPPING INTO PHOTOGRAPHY My experience of walking down the interior emergency-exit stairway in the south leg of the St. Louis Gateway Arch (a descent of 630 feet from the newly joined keystone at the top), is still a strong memory from one of many job site visits my brother and I made to the landmark with my father, while it was under construction. Remembering that day inside the Arch probably has more impact now than it did when I was actually experiencing it as a teenager. A series of ... Read More about P-Tn PROFESSIONAL HISTORY

The SPOOL Machine
1.) What is a SPOOL MACHINE, anyway? View VIDEO! ...and this NEW VIDEO Clip! ... and 2.) what does it have to do with photography? 1.) It's a motorized piece of equipment that permits RE-spooling of all types of electrical (and other) wire from BULK rolls to job-sized SPOOLS. Obviously, you gain big savings on wire purchasing. (BROCHURE) 2.) Well ... NOTHING, frankly. We have a business relationship with the manufacturer, who also produces some of our ProgressWEBCAM & ... Read More about The SPOOL Machine
