Yes the shaver cost $190, but the options are just compromises. The
rivets look great and when you are up on top of the scaffolding - the
quicker the better, too.
The aluminum paint on the plastic cover is going to eventually flake, so
I am looking for an original aluminum vent cover so I can have a local
electro-shape shop make 2 dozen or so. Anyone know who might have one,
or have a damaged or beat up one for the cause?
Later,
