Re: combine filter used for grill

Keep it up I like it having driven my share of combines when I was a kid when we farmed. I was the youngest child and dad retired early at like 48 So I was still a kid when the farming end of life was done I still miss it, we past a field today after golf, and the turned dirt smell always brings fond memories.

Now that is cool! I like to see guys make what they want instead of flipping through some catalog to buy their "custom" parts. You don't get custom from a catalog, you get it from your shop.

Re: combine filter used for grill

That mesh looks real good. I always wondered if mesh would look good or not, but I've never been able to get a hold of any.

Did you have someone make the streetmachine emblem?
