So I built this today. Had some time on my hands and a chunk of aluminum. Oh and a really old nasty pistol grip knob on the Rx-7 that needed to go bye bye.

That's kind of cool. I can't quite tell, does it say RX-7 on it?

You want to lathe me up those trim rings from TGO that go around the firebird gauges? Very Happy

Looks great Paul!

What year is that car? My first car I bought with my own dollars was an 83 RX7, looks like the same interior.

Did you know you can also "mill around"?

I milled "around" hole in a tail housing today Wink

Milling is alot of fun too. Mostly all I've been doing with it is cutting slots.
