Got a sample piece from the extruder and I couldn't be happier. Works great, looks great, totally rocks. Won't be long now. I'd like to thank everyone for their continued patience.

BTW, if you're saying to yourself, "what lining clamps? I want lining clamps, too!", then click here.

What would be real cool would be if the inside half had a ledge that indexed the rims edge so that the top of the lining would be set 1/16" or 3/32" proud of the rim. But not everyone does this, I do to avoid sand into my prfile more than required when dome sanding. but still would be cool because not only would it clamp it would set is height in relation to the rim as well

Thanks, guys. Yes, they'll be anodized in two colors.

Michael, I thought of that, but it would only work for a certain percentage of folks and it seems easier for those who would want that feature to make a slight adjustment for it in their methods.
