Just gorgeous! Maybe my favorite outside horn machine.

That's a real eye catcher. Great job. Now if Santa would only deliver one like it to my house. :)

Congratulations, Jerry. A stunning machine. I have to ask... did it have the original trim ring or did you have to find one for it? My BD is still ring-less and I am always looking for that elusive part.

When I took the parts to the plater, I told them the only part that would be extremely difficult to replace was the trim ring. Jerry
