He said soda cans, if he said beer cans he'd just look like a crazy drunk guy in a machine shop.
Nice work, makes all those failed 80% builds look weak.

Interesting how he overcame some of the issues of accessibility during the machining process.

My only criticism was I was willing him to go down to his mate's place to get the fault tigged up instead of filling it out with pewter.
I just don't like the idea of such beautiful work developing a fracture later on down the line. Even if it couldn't that would still niggle me - just knowing it was there.
