    The fact you did it yourself, and are humble enough to show us your work in the garage...And your work bench.. ( which most of us have and use ).. just gives the rest of us every day guys the confidence to go out and work on our projects also.. You did a great job and are an inspiration to this community. Great job !!

    OK.. I am done with the leg humping !!
