Looking good Greg. That's How I would have done the nuts too. Anxious to see it all painted up and together. Very good project and good attention to detail!!!!

I spent about an hour this evening, started the sanding process. Went thru a couple 24 grit disks on the side grinder, hope to spend a bit more time tomorrow evening. Flap disk next... smooth it up nice.

Looking great Greg! Love the limb risers. The whole thing reminds me a little of the way my brush cage was when on the LB1914. I'm feeling a little nostalgic!

Ron, feel free to share pictures. Helps with the nostalgia. And I'd like to see what you had.

The educational content of this thread is fantastic. I will miss it when you are finished Greg. Great job you are doing.

Thanks Gordon, but.... educational? LOL... glad you think so, I'm gonna have to loosen my hat now, yer making my head swell.

I thought I was done, but was able to find a few more scraps to make a few more gussets out of, guess I'll add those in next chance I get. Wasn't today, bitter cold here, and to top that off, I'm almost out of argon for the welder. Might just tack them in place and finish it at work.

I think anytime I can view a pictorial build it's educational.

In this case the quality makes a positive educational experience.
