2nd Stretch "The Dirty Devil"

Postby Bigdaddy772 on Sun Jun 24, 2012 6:36 pm

Thanks jackdaw.... I really love the way it came out. I gave up trying to work with the splint on my hand so off it came. I mocked up dirty devil for a little shakedown..... Nice and straight a little wobble in the front nothing to serious. Image
