Well it's finished and a fairly enjoyable build it was too. There is a fair bit of laminating on the box and associated lid and the instructions are a bit confusing but if you just wing it like I did it all turns out pretty well. The inside panel was not supposed to glued in and there was to be an interior for it but I just glued it on. If you're a zealot member it is well worth the effort of obtaining and building. If you do then it's also worth thanking the author. Fun all round. Once again my apologies for the crap photo.
