Not true. Take a look at the Antique Radio Forums, http://
www.antiqueradios.com/forums/index.php. There are lots of beginners
there, many of them in their 30s, 20s, and even teens. There may not
be
as many people interested as there are now, but it certainly isn't
going
to die.-

There will always be an interest in "old" stuff, everything from
vintage
radios to black powder muzzle loaders to weaving cloth on a home made
wood
loom.

And given the Internet, such is easier than ever.

Making your own wood screws (that is screws made of wood); not a problem
to
find the tools to do it on the Internet.

Sorry, but I would have to disagree.

With what part?

I gave away a lot of that stuff 25 years ago..

So what?

I just sold a bunch of scrap lead for $200 to a guy that casts his own
balls for shooting muzzle loading rifles in reactments while wearing
buckskins.

The world is changing..

The world has been changing for 4.5 billion years.
