I'm just north of Detroit so, I've been dealing with zombies for years..Ha!!! I've got my "Zombie Outbreak Response Team" sticker on the rig to prove it.

Actually, if anyone is interested in a custom skid plate, I plan on selling them as cores become available. They will, all be one-off...next is either a flame or bone motif....or fallout/radiation...

Thats a basic standard for all drivers, toothed-skid plate or not! I'm jealous though, I think pnp would charge me upwards of 30 dollars for a skid like that, bit too much for my taste.

I'd look at it as multi-purpose. Cut fishing line or rope, thatch the lawn, scratch a back (to pieces), comb hair.....the list is truly endless
By the way, cool fab work!!
