swede70 Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 Very nicely engineered and hat's off to your solid pace through these respective projects. I scratch build little things consistent with my project focus, but clearly not to the degree and intensity that you so clearly excel at. If only we could take our creations around the block whence finished...Mike K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
