I may have an opportunity to meet with Mr. Rapine late next month. If that comes to fruition I will ask him about the future of his business. If I get any information to post, I will certainly do so.

I use a number of Rapine moulds myself, so I am hoping for the best!

Wow, I've known him for something like 15 years.....I didn't think he would ever retire.
I hope his health is good.
Maybe he pick at his guitar full time now ;D
