The one you did is harder to make and shows the skills you have. Great work as usual.

**FRENCHBLUE72** · 10-05-2011, 07:31 PM

Damn having that big rounded panel would have saved me a ton of work on mine..

72k5zl1 · 10-05-2011, 07:36 PM

You should. You have it figured out now and the next ones shouldn't take anywhere near as long to produce. I'm sure they would sell well.
