This makes me very happy.

Did you manage to break anything during the shakedown? Any issues?

No issues...Other than a few adjustments here and there, the shakedown went very well!

I'll dig through my records to see if I can find some.

Here's the shop that built the cage...I worked primarily with Joe. They did some smaller work for me as well.
