heppnerguy Posted March 16, 2017 Report Share Posted March 16, 2017 Ron, we all can count on your workman skill to produce something this special. But I have to admit that I knew it would would be nice until I saw the open box.....well...........then I had the realization that this box had more going for it on the inside than I ever would have imagined for it. It is truly outstanding.....all the way through... Dick heppnerguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
