Cool solution with the heat shields. Your fab work is amazing, is that your career?

Stude made a fancy radio grill but they are hard to find and expensive so I decided to make one out of 1/4 inch aluminum. It was a silly amount of work but I think it came out OK (I have more time than money or sense).

Wow that radio grill came out really nice! Great job on that. Did you turn the turn signal knob in a lathe?

Thanks! No I don’t have a lathe, I just just let it spin against my 12 inch disc sander.

Latest project is making a aluminum interior covering to have something to attach upholstery to. I got the roof part made and am now working on the sides and back of the cab.
