Oh and thanks bucshott and juganought for the kind words.

Juganought (and others that have requested Sterling grills) - I am still planning to make a batch of these grill sets...just don't know when. When I have them ready I will post on buy & sell. Just need to work out some kinks and make sure they are coming out good quality wise. So far they all have annoying little defects. These might be the only parts I ever sell...I really wasn't planning to make parts for hire - no time to work on my own projects! Joe

really looks nice Joe , On the tiag I found you can't push it It just does not have the mass . when I got mine It came with a fly cutter . OK lets give it a shot well you couldn't even mill a piece of paper without the whole mill walking off the table needless to say the fly cutter been in the box since . I cut my 5900 grill by hand with mine my eyes looked like this after

So thats me, FGD, Dreamweaver, and all the the others, you should just give up your day job. That's a right little earner there.

Mike - Thanks man! And yes sir...the bumper is the latest. Kind of my favorite so far because it's 90% hand worked...only used the mill for the slots and mounting holes.

Thanks guys...OK, I'm convinced...one of these weekends coming up will be dedicated to running off parts for sale.

FGD - Pics always show the good side. LOL. Yea, I think I could have a pretty well stocked defect store front at this point! Everything takes me two or three tries!
