Tank you very much :)

 

If there is any part you want me to focus on or show just ask :)  (I like to post in fairly the same order the build progress but i have a ton of photos so just tell me and I'll post)

I'd like to know what you want to see next (beside photos of a completed build).

My eyes. God that thing's beautiful. Good luck on putting it together, mate.

I cannot be held responsible for any bad advice given.

I've no idea why the world is afraid of 3D-printed guns when clearly 3D-printed crossbows would be more practical for now.

My rig: The StealthRay. Plans for a newer, better version of its mufflers are already being made.

I'll do my best to get some new material up this weekend, I will also try to write a few lines so it's not all pictures.

You are a true artist my man! Your a skilled trades person? or just extremely well acquainted with carpentry?

Desk builds are always the best because you can go so overboard and not have to worry about size. Love it. Subbed.

Well that's good for most desks build.... but did you see how thin this thing is?... That is just one aspect I love about this design.. You don't think that would have some limitations to it.

If you ain't voiding warranties you ain't doing it right!!!!!   :D
