You’re doing very well, that gun looks great, and I’m stoked that you’re putting in the extra effort to display it. That’s awesome.

That is most impressive! Yeah, that cut was worth it for that gun!

Test fitting the fuselage. Doesn't look like there will be too many problems.

Yeah buddy!!! You’ll be gluing it together soon and before you know it you’re gonna have the biggest, baddest gun they ever built an airplane around sitting on your workbench!

Too bad it won't be sitting on my shelf when done. This is a commission build for a friend.

Thanks!

The bench is far from empty. The A-10 and it's parts are taking almost all of it. That mech I'm building is on there as well.
