How about Cato? It meant 'wise' to the Romans and it's not a hassle to say. (KAY-toe)

You really should get some pictures up. You shouldn't be starting a build thread without something visual to share. Typically, build threads with no pictures get ignored or shut down.

Use a dremel to add angles to pieces after you cut them out. Also use a heat gun when you need to bend pieces and you want them to keep their shape.

Welcome to the forum! You should find this site to be very insightful on what to do when to do it and how to do it. We have things called "stickies" to help you out with anything you might need like painting tutorials, foam, and so on. I'll give you some links to get your started.
