Well I guess I'm gonna have to hit brad up for another bucket then :)

Ooooh! That's looking very nice... Good to see you back in action. Nice job on the thorn too by the way. Are you making any of your models available, whether for purchase or otherwise?

So it's been a while since I posted anything, but I figured I would post up my progress on my newest project, the Duke from destiny. I got the model from Stephen Swanson and had it printed by my friend Tim (timecon here on the 405th, you can message him if you need stuff printed). Once I had it...

Love all of your vids Dave! Looking forward to more updates. Things going well?

If you are able to get these working I might have to snag one...

I got a cast of the m45 all cleaned up yesterday. I used nothing but hand tools and sandpaper to clean it up, and it still only took 2 hours or so to do everything. It would have been faster to use power tools, but I wanted to ensure that it could be done with simple tools for those who don't...
