Yes....it's been three years since last posting. Unfortunately work & house got in the way of everything and the build was put on the back burner...temporarily !

Now pulled back out of retirement and work commenced again, so wondering if any posters on this 2016 thread are still active on the forum and would like to see the build progress once again ?
