Bespoke sill plates for the Dr

Lots of talk about sill plates, and much ego swinging about who or what, so after an exhausting week of flying the who's who of the best bodied MILF in Cape Town I got to my CNC mill this afternoon

Dr Brent wanted a bespoke plate to authenticate his DB 9 ... so next week i will go to post office and send them

Tony I was going to water mark 0.003 below engraving the Db 9 Logo for this good Doctor but thought I would let you run a example of that to challange me for the nest attempt

Im a Pilot not a tool path specialist this is my hobby...along with Cheerleaders and Milf watching





Now all the Doc needs to do is run a paint clour of his choice into it and flat it back with 1000 water paper

Forgot to mention the sills are made from scratch. Not the factory originals turned over.

With Captain shipping these from SA, I'd be interested in getting a set as well to help offset the shipping cost to the States. Can't imagine continental shipping would be too cumbersome if someone was willing to distribute to members (i'm happy to take this on).

I will make a few and could send to Telum??
let him ..let me have the detail??


Here is how it was done, I had a mate pop in and take a cell phone selfie ..he uploaded it to you tube so Brent could re live it

remember a cnc cutting stainless or plastic or titanium....does not care

Hard work is next week I need to walk into a shopping center...in my uniform ...and post them in the mail. Milfs apparently have a thing for men in uniform, and when they drive an Aston it removes the poser thing associated to Top Gun ....but my goodness did Top Gun open a few doors for us

I'd rock a set of titanium ones

I can facilitate if you guys want. Can't do it on 6speed due to forum rules.

Two ways to do it off the top of my head if you want me as the middle man:
1) You guys can handle it through private messages/emails with Greg, pay him by whatever means he needs, etc, and he can send one shipment to me and I'll send them out to everyone when I get them from him. We'll have to sort out shipping from me to each of you.
2) I can put a listing on my website and you can order from me. I'll give him the specs for each order and a lump payment for the plates plus shipping to me. The shipping charges through my ordering system will cover the shipping from me to each of you.

If you guys want the second option, I'll have a listing up this weekend.

Thanks Captain/ Telum!

2nd option seems great to minimize superfluous messaging, things getting lost in translation, etc.

I'd love to rock a titanium set as well if it is not too tough!

Yeah, I think it might end up a little smoother. One payment from buyers, and a bit more streamlined.

Greg, if you want me to list them on my website, send me all the info. Aluminum and titanium would be good options. Character limit for the text. Costs for each type of metal. Production times. Etc, etc. More info the better so I can answer questions as needed.

If anyone doesn't want to go through me, that's perfectly fine, feel free to go directly through Greg.
