I finally took the plunge and started laying out the two Max IV tubs and cutting up plastic yesterday afternoon. There's not a whole to be said, except that the cutting went well, and i started welding a tiny bit to hold the bodies together.

The whole thing is 10'2" long! It's huge! I need to get down to RI and negotiate a frame ASAP.

I took several pictures, but the Site is presenting the jpegtrans error to me when I upload, which has never happened before. I do most of my posting at work (shhhhh!!!!), and picture hosting Sites are blocked by our firewall, so pictures will have to wait until the issue is resolved with my uploads, or I get home and post pictures from there.
