So in other words, you don't follow directions very well, huh? :rofl:

Paul, your Speedster goes way beyond woodworking. It's art. Absolutely gorgeous work. :clap:
 
Paul said, "...The grill was made using a 1/8" straight router bit on m router table. Took me 4 tries before I got what I wanted."

Myrna was from the House of Glendowen. She collected Scottish jokes. Did you hear about the Scotsman who dropped his chewing gum out in the chicken house. Well it took him 26 tries before it tasted right.----So, I guess 4 times on the grille wasn't too bad Paul.

I think now is a good time to say, "Good night all."

Enjoy,

Amazing Paul its truly incredible the way this came out. Looking at grain orientation on that front bumper its shouts speed. Very cool thinking the way you selected wood. Wonderful project. How do you top this in your next experience. I kinda think of this and Chas Jones segmented bowls or Stephen B's artworks, or Toni's carvings, I have no idea how you guys go from one to the next.

Definitely :score::thumb:
