Thanks for the generous offer. If I get something I’m really proud of, I might just take you up on it.
I’ve got a nephew that now owes me some labor in exchange for some Christmas shopping money, so I may get that gas line run in my crawl space sometime soon without even getting myself dirty 
You are worrying me Bret! You are going to coerce someone to lay a gas line under your house???
Jim, here are the entries in my magic eight ball that led me to say my nephew would be “lending a hand”.
It’s for his own good! He’s 22 and needs to learn about these things. I’m old. It’s dirty under there. There might be spiders. He owes me money. He’s got a 2 week old baby and probably wants time away from dirty diapers.
Dirty diapers or dirty crawlspace. The possibility of spiders may tilt the scales in favor of diapers 
Spiders are not very active in the cold weather. This would be a good time for nephew to crawl into their den. Plus, Bret does not need to mention the spiders. Hopefully none of KwikFab’s Lady Gaga’s down there.
I’ve got a 19 YO neighbor always wrenching and racing his old Miata. Pulled the original off Fireshare, but man, to cut it at 12" tall I have to redraw almost the whole thing. Too many tight spots for my Cut 60 with a 30 amp tip.
Not criticizing the Fireshare poster, I just wanted smaller scale. It may cut fine at 20" or so.
He’s going to paint his car this Winter so I’m going to let him spray it at the same time.
18 gauge after overnight vinegar soak.
She’s always out and about crawling around her den.
I’ll get a close-up for you later.
All done
I am giving this to the Company I work for as a Christmas gift. (Yes I am kissing up a little) they have been very good to my family. My son is a third generation employee. The tomorrow transformed is as small as I can get a quality cut with my Miller 625 with hand torch. There are no fine cut tips for this torch.
Thanks again to Jim he helped with fixing up the eagle file.
NOW TIME TO CLEAN THE BENCH
I designed this one from scratch for a friend. Him and his buddies hang out in a little bar in Crossville IL. The call themselves the “Crossville Mafia”.
Cut it last night. A few rough places here and there, but good enough for a bar wall in small town S IL.
To follow up on a few from above. Got some painting done over the last few days.
Local HS colors are orange, black, and white.
My brother and his fiancé are expecting their first, and I’ll finally be an uncle so thought I’d cut something to match their theme
OMG! Another Sign from the Guy Who Doesn’t Make Signs!
And a very nice one at that! Jupiter will be coming to his uncle for lessons in sign making! 
(No lie I’ll probably end up spoiling her like my own kid)
I hope they don’t decide the change the name at the last moment. 
Ha, if they do I’ll just have one of you sign makers just make a new one!
Made some Titan 25T lifting plates from FireShare

I took an extra step, powder coated them with a nice textured black. Our press brake arrives tomorrow morning!
FYI, some of my better tools are co-owned with my friend Rob. Nice shirt!
Just an FYI, I threw the bear sign up on Fireshare for anyone to use
