Do you have some kind of hand tool that will cut a 3-angle seat? I have a good shop here that uses a megabuck machine that looks like a special milling machine to cut my seats. He does a good job and it's pretty cheap if I do all the other work, but it would be nice to have a way that I could do this myself. -- Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
