    Where to get louvers done?

     



    I have a small panel which is about 9" wide by about 6" long that I need two rows of louvers put in. Do you just go to a sheet metal shop that does heating ducts and that sort of thing or do you go somewhere specialized?

    Thanks for your input.

    A Search from HAMB of people who do them & I believe there a couple in your state...joe

    Both are equally terrifying.

    It takes a special press to make louvers, so you will have to ask around or do a Google search to find someone in your area. Or talk with some custom owners. They usually know where to go to get it done. The size you are seeking is not standard, so you may have to do some hunting.

    There's a guy down in Tacoma, call 253-756-2127 and see some samples at STRANGERODZ.COM..

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Bob,

    I haven't talked to Al since Billetproof. I called him, a couple of minutes ago and he is home until January 2, 2010.
