I'm making great progress on building the Swingarms and really quite enjoying it as well

In these pics I'm merely dry-fitting them to the LUT just to see how they look.

I've so far built 3 of 9 Swingarms and they won't be permanently installed until all the gantries for them are built and installed, so there's STILL a lot to do .....

Progress is continuing well with 7 of 9 swingarms now complete
These pics show a dry-fit of the swingarms as well as a closeup of Swingarm #7 showing some of the fiddly details I have to deal with and the difficulty of folding really long, narrow assemblies.

8 of 9 Swingarms now complete and the dry-fit looks AWESOME!!!!

Swingarm #9 is proving to be extremely complex, requiring a few attempts at building various complex parts.

I'll be assembling the whole structure tomorrow.

Time for bed now ....

Swingarm #9 is just about DONE!!!

I've started planning the building of the various Gantries and already spray painted the back of the template sheets.
