Brian, Bill has not quite attained legend status, maybe, but he is one fine technician and a great thinker in our field. He has developed many tools and procedures which are invaluable in our work, and he sells tools and supplies through his company: "Spurlock Specialty Tools" You can E-mail him at 74077.3053@compuserve.com and request a catalog. He formerly contributed to the PT Journal but does not any more. He gave up on PTG membership a few years ago (of course, he also gave up on sheep ranching even longer ago, so who's to say. . . .). He still attends many PTG conventions, exhibiting his tools and supplies, and he teaches at some technician seminars. You might bump into him if you come to an annual convention, like the one in Kansas City this year.
