It rained on my rubies after I painted which caused some drip marks, bummed. Not too bad though. (only spent $30 on them) One of the instructors at my Kung Fu school has some machine that shapes and cut metal, I have the dimensions for the Westar 34's and we'll see how they come out made out of solid metal. If they come out good, we might turn around and offer some to the DH.
