It will be interesting to see what you come up with. Are you going to make them available to the public?<br /><br />RonRonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17342510284740899739noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-946235325566947321.post-45870867197781137742010-04-24T05:19:43.686-07:002010-04-24T05:19:43.686-07:00Ron,

Renegade are 32mm+ tall and chunky. <br /><br />If I was using true 28s I'd reduce unit frontages by as much as 25%, and depth by what looks right.<br /><br />JamesJAMES ROACHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04019888286247164276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-946235325566947321.post-23157905201560774182010-04-24T05:15:23.187-07:002010-04-24T05:15:23.187-07:00Hi Ron,
