Hello Robert;

As I too am thinking about a BIGGER scope a year or
two down the road, I am very interested in following
your project.  Am curious, if its not too personal of
a request, what was the price tag on the cellular
primary blank?  While mine may be in the 30-36" range,
your cost would put things in perspective.  I guess I
could always ask the fabricatior....

Thanks

Bill Marriott
