I guess it runs in the family, a lot of people don't know that Ginger has a famous brother.

I was prepared for a fine testimonial thread in regards to Gingers fine designs and craftsmanship. I feel somewhat cheated instead.

No......Jeez......wearing me out......you realize that I was quoting another user, it was not my statement!
Maybe i didn't use the tools of the forum properly to make my point, didn't think i would need to.

OK, in case it wasn't clear, my point was.....Phil is a dill weed for calling someone out on a roll cage that very easily could of cost him 3 to 5 times what he paid.

So John, is this thread back on track.......the more de-railed the better?

If John were any kind of decent he would offer to do it for free. Can you believe that someone would charge to do a cage?
