OK guys, I need to know from all who is interested if you meant the complete mine rack or just the front end piece circled in red?
Thanks,
Steve A.

Hi Steve, I need just the front "circled in red" pieces. I really appreciate you doing this! Bob Chell AZ.

The front end pieces circled in red are what I was wanting.

Thanks
Chuck

Sorry Steve, I was wanting the angle pieces. I think shipping on the whole set would eat me alive.

Chuck

I would like a set also if you have another set to sell.


Chuck

Chuck, Did you want mine racks or just the front piece circled in red?

 Has the deal been stalled by some thing? I haven't gotten an address yet to send you money, spring is here and I really want to get the mine racks done before the spring car show! Thanks.

UPDATE - I got the first samples back from the fab shop and were totally wrong. Thankfully they didn't charge me. I'm going to make a set of drawings to post in the next week or so and will try to get them made again after Tower Park late April. I will get another set made and go from their.

 Thanks Steve, I kind of figured these pieces were going to have to be quite accurate to fit, which was why I was glad someone else was undertaking the effort, Bob.

Bob, It wasn't the fit that was the problem. It was the fact that after making a template at their shop they lost it and tried to wing it. They should have called me to bring the mine rack back in. That was the problem.

 Has this project been stalled by something? I've spent the last couple months getting the half-track and AT gun ready for the car show so I forgot all about this, now that things are almost back to normal I would really like to get the mine racks going, if you have a good set of drawings for the whole thing I would be willing to buy a set of them and just have them built locally, of course with the convention I realize things are going to be delayed, but when you get a chance please ket me know. Thanks Bob.

I actually made and posted drawings for the mine racks a while back. Here is a link to them.

 Thanks Steve, I hadn't seen that version, those are much easier to figure out.
