No, I am not doing a dual build. At least not at this juncture. I ran across this kit sometime ago and mentioned that I would be interested. Then an e-mail, online payment, and it arrived a lot sooner than I thought it would. I hadn't seen anyone build a Raggs to Riches kit and this one is limited (I think) not by numbers but by time and thought I'd share what was involved.
I loved the attached box note.
The contents include a bound set of instructions and very detailed at that. The contents include some nice resin tanks a role of tape for the metal, a syringe for glue, besides the laser cut parts and strip wood.
In a quick read of what was to be done I noted that he recommends a Sherwin-Williams bonding primer. This product requires baking it on. Apparently, it almost eliminates any chipping. Not sure if this will fly at my house. Or might have to invest in a cheap metal mail box and install a 100-watt lamp for baking. I have until summer to worry about this.
