I have to give hats off to you fellas that do this and do it perfect. I gained many different approaches on how to do this And I have to tell you man, It was not easy..patience..patience..patience.....over three days...about 14 hours total! Whew!
Thanks to Zonie and all for your advice on how to tackle this.
I guess it not so bad..for the first time doing this.
Best to all

Humbling, isn't it!!! Makes me appreciate just how talented many of these builders are!

Good job on first one.

Looks good! I am almost finished with one. Forming the hinge is probably the toughest part. But there really is nothing all that hard about it. It just takes a long time. I got a bit more than 14 hours into it though. Its all on video and will be posted on the forum.
