projections into the future

Another very cool project, But it has been temporarily shelved so Roger can make headway on a swag of custom orders, Another speed dialer with a resin tint was ordered today, Seems to be flavor of the month at the moment, Go the Speeding D*, Micro* For more cool project boards check out http://www.surfline.co.nz/rhdprojects.htm and for some of the latest resintints check out http://www.surfline.co.nz/resintints.htm
