Giant work You are doing installing all those pins. It is indeed a job of 7 time measuring and once cutting. Well done!

 

[Grendels]

Thanks Solander!

Here is the next part. In this segment, I glue up the major parts. This thing is a big 3D puzzle it was quite a bear to put together......

Brakiri Cruiser: A mess with Glue...

She is glued up and because of the pins, very, very solid!!

One of my cats knocked her off the desk and didn't break her.

That looked a bit frustrating.

That looked like you needed an extra pair of hands. It was good you had Nellie there.

I had no idea what catnip was, so had to look it up. Apparently 10-30% of cats don't respond to it and kittens aren't fully susceptible to its effects until around 12 weeks old. Fascinating.

 

[Grendels]

It was a bit frustrating. Even then I don't think I got it aligned correctly. Everything is squared up, and nothing is wrong, I just think that the central body is off a bit.

I knew that there are a few cats that just don't like catnip. But I didn't know that kittens don't get affected by it until after 12 weeks...

Thanks for the info!

That was a bit of a stressful rush for a minute there wasn't it.

Looking good.

Whew! Way to show grace under pressure. Excellent Job Grendels!!!

P.S. I agree with you on the syringe type epoxy. It's sometimes hard for me to get an equal amount of both parts when it gets a little funky.

And who said modeling doesn't teach selfcontrol?
Nice job even under the pressure of drying glue, well done!

Yeah after I found it in these bottles, I won't use that syringe stuff anymore. Just doesn't work right to me. I end up throwing away half of it.
