Wilmar's adventure is nearly over. He is almost, but not quite at, Sheepscot. After two weeks of often frustrating time dealing with the marine terminal, the customs broker, the drayman and the truck broker, Wilmar finally made it to Maine and was unloaded at Ken Boudin's shop, just a couple of miles from Sheepscot. on Saturday morning The tamper and the large lathe both arrived on the same truck and will be stored at Ken's for a week or two, until everything is ready for both to be delivered to Sheepscot.
