Creating things like this should be what defines a man, not sitting in front of a screen pressing buttons. This is great.

Glad you like it. BTW, the helmet avatar, I made that when I was a Sheet Metal apprentice.

I made it from 16 gauge stainless steel. It is an authentic 3 piece design, though I added the brass trim for visual interest. It took 20 hours to build, hand riveted all the way around.
