    I hope to do a better job of documenting my work on the second one.Smiley-signs081

But as you can see I've not been completely idle, this is one of two hood vents to be mounted on ether side of the hood of my 76 Ford pu to help get rid of engine heat.

This one still needs some clean up on the mill and a quick polish but all and all I'm quite happy:shy:

And I still need to figure out how to put pics in my post the way I want them!!! Chin

You have done a nice job, I like the way the inside edges are rounded.
