Congrats on the progress! I'm still weighing my options. I've been slowly making room in the shop. Looks like you'll be rolling in no time at all :ok:

Seahorse,

That's a nice looking Benroy! Is it generic? 8)

Mike , Yes it is generic, with a few twists. I didn't cut the notch on the bottom. ... a small notch was cut on top and tapered to the bottom. I feel it will give me a more water tight seal........also I designed my own cabinetry........I couldn't have done it without the generic plans.....Thank you for providing such a wonderful site........Rob :shake hands:

Seahorse,

I hope you've been taking lots of pictures. I'd like to see what you did different... I'd also like to include a few pictures in the updated Generic Benroy plans! ;)
