Larry, that oversized aluminum plate used for switch panel / delay box is mounted in a spot that could be called harms way imho. Consider re-mounting it to the dash bar area. Or at very least round the two lower pointed corners to the radius of a quarter.

CURTIS REEDLooking good Larry. What is your best guess on a debut?

Larry WoodfinCurtis, I am beginning a new shop build and moving, so the date has been moved forward. In addition, because of heavy rain in the area, the new shop lot is too wet for heavy trucks to bring in select fill soil. I think realistically, it will be next spring. I do have an understanding with the fellow who bought my property that I can continue to work there until the new shop is ready. However, with some stuff here and some stuff there and some stuff in boxes, well, you see the dilemma.

Larry WoodfinMarkeMark note: In an earlier post, you suggested rounding the corners of the switch mount using a quarter as the radius. I do not have a quarter but did have a piece of pie, so I used that.

ski_dwn_itEnjoy seeing any build. But before you wire that delay box I would get it out of your line of sight to something like this.
