Easyer said than done. :cry: Every rebash I tryed looked crapy and for some reason I can't get the \ line you mentioned on both sides. On one, yes, but it never holds on both. Right now I'm not coming anywhere near the bash mufflowne did on his Henry. Well maybe the next few days will get me closer....

One guy in a german forum said his Henry will take 4 to 5 weeks since there have been much more orders then expected. However, he didn't give an answer to the question if he got this info from Marc yet.

I just hope my Henry will be here soon.
