That looks great. I was thinking about building a downsized version of mine for my boys also. But I need to finish mine first. The sheet metal looks awesome!!!!!!! I wonder how it would look anodized.

Yeah I know.That's why I asked.Aluminum will oxidize under the paint and peel right off if proper prepaint prep is not done.Looks Killer BTW.
