Holy cow, that is some impressive cutting and carving.
Thanks Greg. No 3D printer. All hand cut styrene and some putty. Some day I plan on getting a 3D printer. Sure would come in handy.
I'm baffled by many of the detail parts you appear to be scratching.
3D printing perhaps???
Thanks Bakster
Awesome work being done on this build. Very impressive.

I installed the Attitude Gyros today.
This picture is the Gyros and Bracket prior to Installation

This is amazing.
Finally got back in the shop. Batteries are complete
Batteries are almost complete. I added the Vent Line Connectors and Electrical Connectors.

Continued work on the Rear Bulkhead.
The Cockpit Lights came today. Very small LED's with a control board, all ready to install.

Perfect alignment between the Escape Tower and Capsule.
Worked on the door stand and Escape Tower Stand
Finished the Antenna Fairing Stand. I started the Escape Tower Stand, but no pics yet. The main base is drying on my surface plate.
Spending a lot of time researching, so I started the stands.
