And did a couple of BO! Both sides ![](http://i1023.photobucket.com/albums/af359/DonniesTreasureShop/Donnies%20Rocky%20Treasures/IMG_1259.jpg) ![](http://i1023.photobucket.com/albums/af359/DonniesTreasureShop/Donnies%20Rocky%20Treasures/IMG_1258.jpg) ![](http://i1023.photobucket.com/albums/af359/DonniesTreasureShop/Donnies%20Rocky%20Treasures/IMG_1257.jpg) What a mess I made, but it was worth it!

Nice job on the cab, but agree the red/brown iron oxide in this material stains everything, and is messy. The end cabs are worth it.
