Thanks Reg. I feel bad enough knowing I can't finish my straps tonight, after breaking my end mill, but to have something go wrong with the mill, well that would be worse! Hang in there! Hopefully it's an easy fix for you.

Thank you Craig. I was beginning to loose some patience making these straps too, but I just kept at it. No turning back now! I'm guessing I had 10 or 12 failures, to get 4 good straps, so it wasn't easy. I'd have to count the messed up ones laying on the floor to know for sure!

Hey thanks Jimmy! There is still a lot more work to do yet, so I guess there will be more to come!

I finished bending and soldering the other 3 straps tonight. I'm glad this step of the build is done now. It took long enough! I still get bogged down with the details!
