Heard you got with Andrew, glad it went well and the gorgeous wagon is gonna go down the road!
Thanks, Chip. Next up after a few more tweaks will be the World of Wheels in March. Talked to your pops this morning and it sounds like he's rounding up a posse of fellow trucksters to swarm Bartle Hall. Should be a fun get together.

I think the dies will work pretty well for the little dab of work I have planned. My test piece was a louver I cut from a leftover panel I used as a pattern and it's a little ragged around the edges. Below is a louver I actually punched out of a fresh piece of .063 aluminum with the dies I made.
