Amazing work, the casting looks perfect.
Man, I wish you were my neighbor Rob! I would love to watch over your sholder. Very nice work. Did you make the pattern or copy an origional casting?

Chuck
Very nice Rob.

How about a quick video showing how it's used?

Hi Chuck , I made a pattern up for the job , you can actually buy a casting for about £10 .
