Another amazing vid.
I must admit that the StarTrek thing was a bit odd.
Some might say that you're spending too much time in the garage...... :lol:

A filler free, all metal nose. Amazing, masterful work!!

And I will say that's better than then the nose on my 23, I have some filler on the seam. Your video has inspired me to take it all off and work the metal instead of taking the lazy way out!!

Thanks Joe! :) ...er, I mean that in a good way. I was content to leave filler but after seeing your video I can see the error of my ways!

Preach on brother!!

Well done Joe - you've done a top job. Are you a tradie of some sort?

By the way, you sure know how to handle a slapper :wink: .
