Well, when you surgically graft a lighted headset magnifier to your skull and work at 3.5X - it's amazing what tiny details you can carve up out of styrene. Of course bouts of arthritis in the finger joints don't help - but hey - Zvezda didn't make their kit back when I was young and virile! Of course right now that the greebs are done, I am stuck in threading fibers hell.
Kudos to what you have to go through with the Cooper Kit. I'm not brave enough to dive into resin. I'm just now cutting my teeth on lighting.
