Hi all ( Anyone out there? )

Has anyone used the 3d printed Shapeways U clamps? Do they look good in scale?

Later Folks

The top deck is still loose and the turret disconnected just for ease of manipulation. Weighing in at 11lbs already is not easy to work on but i have a big circular cake stand that revolves, so that will be a great help.
Just need to work out the order and when to re-connect the turret to its ring and seal her up. Think I might be just about there so keep watching.

Sorry its been a while.

Cheers guys x. How can i still be working on this nearly 10 years later :D You should see my modelling shed LOL.

Need to get this finished before I croak...so cracking on now. Regular updates will be incoming. Off to the IPMS Telford show tomorrow so that will be good. Will be keeping the wallet tucked away.

BTW not aiming to shuffle off just yet :D
