Not sure what your using it not a shop, but one heck of a great looking piece you have so far. BTW the back on my truck see a lot of action as it is the biggest work area I have that since I don't have a work bench area.

Hi Guys,

I'm wondering if anyone has a shot of the rifle from the front as I'm curently CADing it up and just need some more detail from the front.

Gotta love Uni holidays, I can book a whole day on the rapid prototyper and boy is it going to get a workout :grin:

Don't know if it helps, but "Saga of a Star World" also had some nice close-ups of the rifle:

Bad news, the Uni went under in the floods including the RP in the basment that i was due to use this week, so no fun for me till hopefully next holidays.

I hope they upgrade the Rapid Prototyper with a new model now, the current one is about 7 years old and can be a bit dodgy at times.
