And now the front and rear formers are on the bottom side of the forward hull. The width is 12inches even. This needs to set up nice and hard before I try to put the top faces on it.

Any ideas about final dimensions after putting all together? Seems smaller than you told before. I'm not complaining at all, of course. Smaller models takes more labor but are more gratifying.

Here it is with the top skins on it.

It'll be 12in wide and I think it'll be about 14-15in long when done. That just about lines up with what I figured initially.

I'm already up to 15 pages of parts and 10 pages of instructions. It is not going to be trivial. I'm trying to think of a funny way to describe the difficulty level.

Ideas so far for difficulty:
"Down, not across"
"Pull your hair out before you begin"
"Invest in a blade manufacturer"
"Stock up on plenty of wine"
"I wish to neglect the rest of my life"
"I'm not frustrated, I'm like this all the time"

How about, "Better buy a delorean" ?
