That looks SICK! Nice job. AS Fick asked.. did you get this as an ARC, or did you do the strip and cover gig? If so... DAMN.. nice work!  Only thing I can imagine would make it look a touch better would be a FAT Flying Giants graphic on it.

| Re: Not So quick Quick Build
BTW, I want to make this perfectly clear, I didn't build this. I use an outstanding builder here in Las Vegas. His work is always perfection in motion. Although we spend hours going over the build, it's not me that goes to bed with CA all over my fingers. I did suggest that I become his business manager though. He started out building Daltons, completely covered, everything installed for $500. I think he's upped his price a little since then.

I mean glue has to add up to over $100, throw in $200 worth of covering... $100 worth of blades... OMG.... does he want to visit the old days? I have a 35% Dalton that I'd pay $500 to have it built!

He's building my 42% Extra 300........Price is quite higher than that. You supply covering on top of his price but paint is included. It is still reasonable......and his workmanship is the best I've ever seen.

That has to be labor only... For a good turn key probuilt job your looking at around 2500.00 labor. you supply the materals and cash.. Gas and go. 500.00 would be an smokin deal !!!
