Last thing: how long did it take? Thanks a bunch.

Yeah, anyway...actually when you need to get a piece done and move on to the next one, so far I've been successful in suggesting to my clients that the logo areas would look great painted, and I do it for them for free. Now if I had to do such an item for myself, the lettering would get done.
I use a homebuilt belt sander for such items, although it looks like I couldn't use it much on this particular cover. Would work great on the tops of the ribs etc. though.
