    Two years ago this past weekend I lost one of my employees to a sudden heart attack. As a fairly new manager, this was the first time I had experienced that. I still remember his sister calling me on Easter morning to tell me of his passing. It is hard to sit and recall, to this day. I will be praying for your co-worker's family as well as you and the others that person worked around. Life is definitely just a short period of time.

    So I'd like to thank @Jaybird2010 @Preston89 @Lateralus @Vinny2185 @Bocsy44 and @Dr Crawl for their patience with me on this batch.

    It's always a challenge when I have this many Raptor style grills in a batch due to the length of time that's involved building them. I believe I've stated it before but these take nearly twice as long to create due to the more complicated mesh work, additional plastic fabrication process, and letter finishing.

    Here's the completed batch:





    They are all currently sitting inside the house as the 3M mounting tape adheres best at regular room temps and it's simply way too cold in my shop. (much to MrsTaco's dismay I might add... :rolleyes: ) I'll have these all shipped once I'm confident they're ready to go, either Friday or Sat. :D

    They look sooooo good Craig! They really are fantastic looking.

    You ever get those 3rd gen grills going maybe we can work out an exchange. I got a nice looking, perfect working condition wood burning stove with a blower that would heat up that shop nicely, just sitting in my garage :thumbsup:

    Or I have cash :D

    I actually have a Vermont Castings woodburner stored under a shelf in there that was given to me by a friend. It's so nice I don't have the heart to part with it. Not practical for heating the shop though...

    Then you should put your name in now. Lead time takes awhile.

    They look awesome. Assuming I have good weather and can get my truck clean prior to receiving, I will have pics available immediately following install. It has been a long wait but I believe you offer some of the best looking grill options I have seen. Definitely been worth the wait.

    No, the 05-11 ghost raptor versions I’ve made were all thin lip style.
    I actually like that better because I think it shows off the lettering more.
    I could totally build one though. :D

    NO s
    No selfishness in that at all! It did arrive yesterday afternoon. Looks great, I just couldn't bring myself to install it on my dirty truck. I hope to get it clean today and install tonight. Will have some pics soon after. Thanks again.
