I don’t consider him such. A brilliant man no doubt but he mainly worked to streamline manufacturing methods via the lost wax casting process. He brought out some great products at the right time but I don’t see any truly new and innovative designs that he was responsible for creating from scratch like Browning.
We have both to thank for their contributions no doubt but I don’t consider them equals.
I agree.. sort of like a John Browning / Henry Ford comparison instead...
