Excellent stuff! Any chance of a follow up video of the grinding, polishing and fitting of the handle etc?

Thanks for letting us know that Greg, much appreciated. It's using a website called Vimeo that usually allows us to present the video with better quality (and more customizable). It seems to be working fine at my end, my work & at Justin's place, but your not the first person to mention of it struggling, so I'll look further into that. Glad you liked the video :)

I don't know what player you guys are using for this but it's not loading very well on my computer, and on my friends it didn't load at all. But i tried youtube and its giving me much better quality video. Very good though!
