Forgive my strange rambling here...
I've said it a few times but I hate 90 degrees and will avoid them at all costs on a design. This build would be a hell of a lot easier if there were some 90's, but I dont think it would have the flow. Drilling and grinding things that aren't at 90's creates a lot of work, but I think it's all worthwhile. Now, if you're reading this post, do NOT turn on your internal 90 degree -o- meter, you'll go crazy!
This will end up with a slight S curve top and bottom.

Caution: Thread Necromancy Ahead!
This guy was aching to be ground. I ran into problems and scrapped the frame recently, I need to figure things out better.
This is a 10" version of the Bowie blades and is the one I showed in the re
