Nice work but I can still see lots of bench top, no where close to clean up time.
Free advice is worth exactly what you payed for it.

Very nice Bob
They look like nice solid castings
I like to leave as much of the "cast finish" showing as possible
We are going to re cast the valve chest covers in "petro bond" sand this week end
