Excellent work by a true craftsman. Saw your review on EMRR. Very concise and informative. Too bad the company is no longer in business, I might have ordered the kit. Instead wound up building a clone from the original design, parts from erockets, clear plastic stock from Hobbylinc. Had to relearn how to cut clear plastic fins. I had done it once as a kid building the Thor Agena, but this time using the old score and snap method gave me mixed results. Wound up using an oscillating tool. Easy peasy, nice straight cuts and no throwaways.
