    Congrats! That's a long time, but there's nothing wrong with that.

    So is that an MK 1 or 2? It looks great!

    Congratulations, she looks great!! My build is taking a bit longer than I would like, but it's ok. And, if mine turns out as nice as yours, it will be alright with me!

    Way to keep with the build and get her done. I hope you enjoy the heck out of it!

    Regards,

    Steve
