Very nice work on the conversion Bond. Really nice! I like that!
Thought I'd post some better angle shots of John Galt's Resistol / Indy conversion...sorry for the poor picture quality. My cell phone camera isn't that good...

Thank you,Mr.Astor.The brim trimmer was a simple solution thought up by a simple man.The metal tray that keeps the blade from cutting into the surface I'm cutting on was a toaster crumb tray.
