Joberg - yah but when you need to move the space station around you can just roll it by yourself, LM's got to get several friends to help him carry his!

Either way, both of your projects are mind blowing insanity, but it a good way!

Well, that's a relief...but almost the same amount of work, right?

Go, Hot Dog, go!

Not sure what you plan to do with the model when you are done filming but it'll belong in a museum.

More like "three times as much work," joberg. Pass the Scotch, wouldja?

Thanks, Dave! And I'll belong in an asylum.

Did you select the colour of your straightjacket? I did mine! It's going to be pink with white polka-dots and one big logo at the front: "Keep Arm In". I can also give you the name of a rubber furniture store...

I'm going with classic pinstripe. You can dress it up or down. Perfect for so many occasions.

Day 9

Three stations!

I really admire your work cutting and fitting all those pieces together! Having done the scaffolding on my Space Station, I really can appreciate the job involved at making those look real. Keep up the insane work!
