First of all, this is ingenious! The amount of work and engineering in this build blows me away. Secondly, why the Smugglers Room channel doesn’t have a million subscribers, leaves me befuddled.

Your interactions throughout this made me laugh. Being a caregiver I’m thinking “good idea, old bed pan”. That was really cool thanks for posting that and I really love his vintage router plane.

I can’t speak for him entirely, but I know when I work with Styrene I do use a bit of both. I am assuming that the dome needed a bit more of a gusset and possible a little extra strength that the CA glue provided as it’s thicker.
