Modern maker Young Perfectionist Recommendation
#1I most likely will never be able to swing the purchase of an original so I need to find a maker who excels at a modern day version. I would very much appreciate recommendations from the vast knowledge base that is found here on the forum.

#3Maybe not modern as in age but knowledge I'd say Bob Summers.
Probably need to wait 6+ years...

#8The problem with asking Bob Summers to make a copy of a Young Perfectionist is that he made many original Perfectionists when he worked for the Young Company.
Art Weiler makes a good Perfectionist at a good price.
