I just read this entire build thread. Very impressive! It reminds me of mine, it's always changing and there is no such thing as "done." It's nice to have trips as dead lines and be able to tackle winter projects, knowing you can get it done and back on the trail.
There is A LOT of creativity in this rig! You have given me some in sight on two things I am wanting to do in the near future - a safari style top and doors.
I went to OCBR is 13 and 14 and saw this rig, but it's come a long way since then.
Do you happen to still have any more pics or details on how you cut the top down? Like you said on page 10, it has crazy contours in it and I'll take all the advice I can get so I only ruin one top!
