Nice work! I just scored an entire set of rivet tools, dies, air hammer, hand squeezer (don't know the name of it!) etc from a used tool store. Got to try my hand at one of these! won't look as good as yours though...[cl

Now your just being insensitive......

you can't keep coming up with this stuff....where will all end??? I bow to your skills and Ingenuity ......that is very nice...seriously...very nice and it does look cast....curiosity....how long did it take you to do that??
 
It seems some people just take pride in making others look like a fool.........

Naw. I think Ole' Cornfield here is the type that would be like "What, this piece O crap I knocked out? If I did it again I would make it better." He is super humble and always wants to learn new and exciting skills. And helps others learn too. The fact that he has raw talant helps![cl
