    Thumbs up

    Orion,
    How long has this project been going on? When I saw the thread I assumed it was Marlin's. When I saw the pics I thought Marlin changed his plan up. I didn't realize it was your until I saw Marlin reply.

    BTW - Very nice workmanship!

    Peace.

    Tools...I am buying mine as I go, and certainly do not have the skill and experience you have. I don't think I can bend mine the same way, it is all LAHS steel. I will experiment this evening though.
    Once again, it looks amazing!!!!
