    +1, The chop looks just right but as one who has made too many and hopefully the last trip to the eye surgeon for metal removal, wearing eye protection trumps looking cool in the photos.

  14. Looks awesome. It takes a week and half to do a job like that, or were you guys busy with other stuff? Just curious about the amount of labor in a chop like that.

  16. Not to be the neighborhood saftey Nazi but.. If you've ever had a cutting dice decide to grenade on you while it's spinning at 2000 rpms you'll neverforget it. I wear safety glasses AND face shield when using a cutting disc. PM Scratch and ask him for the pic of face vs. disc. Todd

  17. I was going to chide you on the lack of eye safety gear, but it looks like that has been well covered....... take heed please :)

    I have had stuff get in my eye with eye protection and without. I will not post anymore pics of me working cause I don't wear eye protection very often Sorry. It has nothing to do with being cool.

  21. Please don't take the safety comments out of context. You do awsome work and I would hate to see your talent wasted becuse you messed up your vision.
