I like how he doesn't go overboard, does a pretty good job on spacing and proportion - although I find it interesting that he did not drill the back jockey wheel plate on either of his rear derailleurs.

Don't for get Otis, either; he's doing some awesome stuff I can't hope to approach without proper tools. Me, I'm just whittling away here and there as I have time available. This new guy on the block is going to take my place 'cause I'm done with Ebay for selling my stuff. From here on out, commissions and selling on the BF thread will be my only exposure, unless I start a website

Thanks for the nice comments, guys!

Dude, your stuff is so much nicer it is an insult to compare this guy's stuff to yours. I'm sure he will get better with practice but in my opinion he should not be selling yet. Look close, that work is sloppy. I'm surprised it's getting bid on. You still the man for poking holes in stuff by hand!
