Default Found something the old plenum pan is good for

I was trying to think of some small project I could do and came up with the idea to make a custom grille badge. When trying to find a suitable piece of metal to work with, I saw the plenum plate sitting in the scrap metal pile, so I grabbed it and went to work. I got the rough shape cut out of it and shot a layer of primer over the bare metal for now. Still need to finalize my design and get it onto the metal. I got pics, I'll post em up tomorrow.

It's tomorrow, where are the pictures?

I used my old plenum pan for the bottle holder on my welding cart.

Maybe put a ram sticker on it then spray paint over it, then remove the sticker?
