Your right. That was mean.
Panels are my biggest problem too. For the B series I gave up and now 
do the silk screening myself.
I still get them painted outside but even there I have to stay on top of QC.
Most shops I deal with are staffed by goons with no concept of craftsmanship.

Looking forward to meeting you.
It should be a fun couple of days.
I am looking forward to going somewhere without snow.

BTW your email address keeps bouncing back.
