Henning:

There isn't a cow... and that's no bull!

But there IS a huge teapot about a mile down the road. I'm guessing that 
146 was a busy north-south tourist route at one time.

I worked on my Arsat lenses for my 4x5 fisheye TLR today.

I removed the front lens cells, then cut off the ears on the newer lens. 
  After that I ran the front of both of them against my disk sander to 
remove all vestiges of the sunshade ears.  Then sanded with 80 grit, 
followed by 220 grit and a paint job.  They look great, both have been 
re-assembled and are on my desk waiting for my new parts to arrive from 
SK Grimes.

Life is so good!
