[QUOTE="mudgee hunter, post: 422583, member: 9124"] Cheers, as always... it will get some mods the day after. It has even had some since pictured. This 4" model was originally meant to be a 2 piece unit, but after taking a 5" grinder to it and cutting 2"s out of up the guts of it chsnged the neat fit. So it it got tig'd up permanently. Sadly he had trouble with his tig and made a mess of the beads! So I gave him some needed curry for the ugly welds. Ha. But got it running good at the end. and got some 3mm folded up with a 50mm 45deg negative lip, 60mm flat, with a 90deg negative lip for the flare reinforcement. Loosing the ss bolts up front. I dont want to have to cotton wool it. If it" pans" out... I will make a 36x4" dream mat unit. This way I will get 3 strips out of a 12" mat. It cuts ok with care and a good sharp blade. The cut edge can even be sanded nicely on a belt linnisher. Even glued together simply with a good bond with super glue. [/QUOTE]
