looks like the metal is a bit thinker than your average sheet metal and if we want this to look as close to the original osv's then to avoid making it look goofy, better off with thinker metal, but that would have to be a mutual agreement with all of us on how that is made

with sheetmetal the edges can be rolled to give the thicker look and still look good.

Now to have the originals copied we are looking at a lot. make mold for the 2 cast alum pieces, have the tips poured, machined, welded, polished.

i was told you would be looking at least $300 for the tips if not more.

however doing in sheetmetal and having them chromed would be a lot cheaper.

If you know a kid in a vocational high school taking 'machine shop,' you can get them for free.
