What we need to do is help Matt get his scaler running. He has helped all of us a ton!

Here's where we are so far.
Don't want to make any more moves until equipment is in hand.
Looks like that will be soon.



3/4" Square stock, 30" long so far.
That's without bumpers!
Holes are in no particular location, just for reference.
Should be a fun build!
