Looks nice Mark. Didn't know you could paint....Been wanting a script top for awhile. My daughter and I did a Bennett 541 together last year..We had a great time. The time that you are spending with your son is the real reward. Did some script tops have globe mounts? Don't know...just asking... See ya at Pate...as you know, Scott and I will be setting up together again.

Hey Paddy,I agree.The time spent with Evan is special.I saw your post on the 541 with your daughter.That was great!I am not sure if some of the script tops had globe mounts.I would think the script would be the advertisement.Although I have had several of the 80's with ad glass tops with globe mounts.This particular one had a hole cut in the top but the ring was missing.I can tell you it will have a globe mount now!Looking forward to Pate.Never know what we will find!Mark
