Bob, there are a couple of things I would like you to talk about if you could. How small are some of these pieces you're making? Could you put the recent platform next to a scaling object like a penny or quarter so we can see?

Another is concerning the Chopper. You warned me about the Chopper slicing off to one side. I have noticed this. You suggested that I use a double sided blade to keep the blade from wandering like this, but it continues to happen. It seems like the Chopper is really only good for plastic with a small thickness or diameter. Have you been able to counter the blade movement?

Thanks! Keep progress pictures coming!

Very tidily done, Bob. I like the anemometers.

Top knotch as always, Bob. Like the ratcheting up the side. Did you drill those holes out or manage to find a piece already done?
You certianly have the eye for spotting those opportunities for extra detail. :thumbs_up_1:

Superb work Bob but I think you missed a couple of rivets :heh: :heh:

How many bits of styrene did that take?

Nice one Bob - the superstructure of the New Jersey is riddled with loudspeakers so I know what it's like...
