gjdale Posted June 7, 2013 #857 Posted June 7, 2013 Augie, If you started this build in Nov 2011, I think this would officially classify you as a "speed builder".

augie Posted June 8, 2013 Author #858 Posted June 8, 2013 I think we can agree, Grant, that the complexity of your ship and the caliber of your build are numerous levels above mine. And, seeing that I have quite a few years on you, I can't waste any time. Heck, I don't even buy green bananas anymore!
