re: the am gratings Bri;
I used to use them a lot in my work as an architecture model maker, and I don't know if you have any more to do, but this tip may help. If we needed a larger grating than the bought pieces would allow we would stagger the position of the joins in the longer lengths to avoid a butt joint across the whole piece.

Had an early start this morning doing the gratings got a few rings and eye bolts to fit. (nice and cool this morning) :)
