Hi Ron,
Very nice! Compact, efficient. Good job. I've been looking at Bill's 
designs for years, and even built one of aluminum some time back. I 
should have built smaller like you did, as mine was underpowered (I knew 
that, but it was an experiment) and I never managed to find a place to 
install it in my micro shop as a central system. It's long gone now.

The King Billy is lovely. Is it typically that tight and clear?
