Genius 281 Posted October 14, 2015 Awesome work well done, it's easy looking at the pictures online when they fill your full screen, a lot more daunting when you get inside it and realised how small the gears actually are Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bncrpt 1 Posted October 15, 2015 Bloody oath mate! My hands are pretty bloody steady but when seeing the tip of screwdriver thru a loupe it's like I'm waving!! Haha and the screws are ridiculously small and have a knack for flying across the room when picked up by tweezers lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
