Finally, the story can be told! From the days after getting the assignment, through weeks of crushing pressure fabricating my components, and ending in the final build with Adam Savage and his team at the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum, this epic feature has it all. Get your popcorn and beverage, and enjoy!

    If only someone had put tolerances on the drawings he may have stood a chance of assembling the piece without cracking the hatch base, using double sided tape to attach the hatch window and breaking Jimmy's hinge, not to mention all the time wasted in sanding and filing components to fit. Oh well, at least it ended up together and on display (and some people's components actually had some slack to make sure they fitted 😄)

    For all those fine pieces they kinda used bottom of the barrel hardware. That’s about the only thing I’d have done differently. Proper high quality machined screws.

    This was a crazy project. Well done!

    Wow, 3 hours! Was all of this released as parts and this is just a big final compilation, or is there new material?
