Its going on the back burner now! Fishing in france at end of the month and spent way to much money not to devote some time to that!
Yes and no really.
The plastic alternatives are absolutely crap. Although the follow the profile better they are just really craply made and like rocking horse s**t to get hold of. Unles you know the supplier of them.
The only restriction will be very minimal in my opinion as it is only 1 half...

Lol yeah it takes a while to read lol. Yeah loads of effort and time more than anything the build itself has been quite resonible cost wise. Still gone over the 2k budget (inc buying the car) lol. Yeah the cage has been the biggest ballache. I wouldnt do it again but ill be glad to say that i...
