Ok Ok.....I finished the build last night. Here is a pic from dark dank basement. I am still playing with stem length and angle. I will take some better pics today before I get her all dirty. Let me know what you think!

Sweet ride Gary!
If it were mine, I'd ride it like I stole it. There should be no easy rides on that steed.

I am sure Santa (Cheri) would love to bring you one one. How cool would it be if Santa rode a Big Dummy.....
