When I said it's done I meant the wood was glued back together! LOL

It's a few weeks from done. Ineed to decide on a new scheme, since it completely stripped.

Here is the pic seconds before impact.

Issue??

Getting some covering on mine as we speak. Should have some pics this evening
I think it'll be better! Glue joints are better now. Only down side is you probably. Won't be able to rebuild it again.

Yep I put mine together with Hysol. Be a lot tougher to get that apart than the factory glue

I use CA and deluxe quick setting wood glue. While I put it together I realized the glue is only there to stop rattling! LOL

It snaps together so tight once covered it will be solid.

I have an idea for a scheme already! Simple but bright with mostly white for low maintenance.
