I admit that I was nervous at
every test stage, but everything ultimately tested out fine, and so far
the rig is working great. It took 2 months, during which I spent a
total of 100 hours building (don't laugh; I may not be fast, but at

Mike,
Whether it took 100 hours or twenty hours does not matter. You've gotten
the brass ring; your K2 worked the first time! Congratulations!
I have a section on my Webpage concerning things you need to be a

patience !!! Building a kit or project is supposed to be fun; not a
competition or a race. Take your time and triple check everything; and
