"Thanks Doug", always looking outside the box for new and different build ideas, and designs, sadly I always have intentions of posting a sound sample of my latest build, but get side tracked, and before you know it I have another build on the bench, will try and get a Vid of this one done soon! :-)
"Thanks Randy & UJ", after 449 builds I was starting to run out of different build ideas, but over the years, if I did, and still do, see something different, I copy and paste it into a "Build Ideas" folder, so as is usual this wasn't my design, it was nicked from someone else!, such as these pics! ;-D
