What a magnificent work of art. The cab on these machines is quite difficult to get right do to the different angels. Great job, Gipicarto.

There are no words to describe this build. It has gotten better and better with each update you send. To do this without any type of CNC equipment is just unbelievable. With me being a machinist by trade, I can see all of the time and effort that has gone into this project. This has got to be one of the best or the best build on this forum. Not sure if I would paint this outstanding model but that will be your call.

Wow, your talent never ceases to amaze me. This is an incredible build and truly is a masterpiece. Hard to believe you did it all manually. Do you have a Digital Readout on your mill and, if not, that makes the work that much more amazing.

Wow, like all the others who have said it before me - this is an incredible build. I can't even begin to imagine the work you've put into this, especially after learning this was all done with manual machines. It looks so perfect and exact.

Unfortunately no Digital Reaout,
I use Proxxon PD400 and FF400 machines, they have high precision bat all manually.

When this is finished, it should make build of the year, not just build of the month. While I might try to make some of the parts in this build by hand, to do this without CNC machines or even without digital readouts puts this build completely in another class of machining that is completely out of my league. I am afraid that I am at a complete loss of words for this build. Everyone has already said everything that can be said about it.

I must bow to a world class master builder. Please tell me that you are a tool and die journeyman or master tool maker and not just a hobby machinist????
