Gee Pete, somebody sure had the last out of that old bar-blade.
That is nice documentation on a well-executed project. When you finish, can you post a record directly to Outdoorking? Say, ten before pics and ten after pics, ten to a post, with some commentary? That will engrave your project in the annals of Outdoorking, so people can look at it and ask you questions if necessary.
Well done Pete - now for a real classic, maybe a Scott Bonnar, or a ride-on!
