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.
