Cimarron 1 Mine

It's finally here. The Cimarron 1 Mine from Banta Modelworks arrived Tuesday in a surprisingly small box - about 6"x10"x2". The kit includes little bits of strip wood to be cut to size, laser cut/etched flat stock, a bag of plastic tube and metal rod to be bent by hand and finally chipboard templates for assembling the strip wood to form the trusses. It looks like a nightmarish mess of stuff to assemble but after looking at the instructions I think it should go together in an afternoon. Now where did I put those tweezers.

Holy Shit! I figured that it would look something like this. What kind of time machine will you be using to build this in an afternoon?
