Holy cow! That's beautiful!

A question about having a sign shop make your front plate - was there a specific type of file you had to give them or did you just give them a picture to work from?

That looks really good! I'm glad you went with your earlier design - I liked it better than the 'high definition graphics' design.

Great job! Can't wait to see the finished product.

So all I do is use Inkskape to draw the front plate and email it to him and walla... I get a beautiful front plate...
Hey, that's good news - I love using Inkscape.

Wow, it's a beast!
Awesome!
As you said, the cart slot needs a little work, but it's still a great portable. I like it.
