doggie427 Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 Very realistic work on the torsion springs, a detail I have made a few futile attempts at replicating.🤷🏻♂️ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AmericanMuscleFan Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 Great job JC, I really like this kind of build, your fabrication is very inspiring, your skill is obvious! 👌 I don't understand how I missed this build, maybe I spend too much of my free time in one place... 🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Codi Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 I'll liken the "crispness" of your builds JC to a perfectly folded paper airplane. They always look just right. cheers, tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
