It was a guy from Massachusetts that said he was a union boilermaker. Had a garage or barn with a lot of stoves in it. Dennis

Yup, that was Wilson. My last trip down to his place, he mentioned 'American Pickers' had visited him.
He said it was a 'fun' day.
Cheers

Early this morning I watched part of a DVR of American Pickers and they went to see a man named Wilson who was a boilermaker and had a huge collection of woodstoves. Is he the same Wilson from our Forum? I wasn't able to watch all of it, but a lot of what I saw made sense. I need to go home and watch the rest of the show. It was getting really interesting when I had to turn it off. Jerry
