Tonight I got started by taking some 6"x3/8" plate and cutting it into 2.5"x6" pieces on my 4x6 bandsaw.  I then took the plates and tacked them together and drilled 2 holes 1"Sq from the corners diagonal to each other.  I only had a 1/2" drill bit so I have to buy a 5/8" bit tommorow so I can finish the holes for my hiem joints.

Next I decided to cut the leaf perches off the D60.  This isn't as easy as it would seem. My plasma cutter is broken right now so I used the torch.  After cutting the perches I started grinding the stuff I couldn't cut off with the torch, which is horribly slow.
