I had to get over being embarrassed to post this here but after thinking about how much info I gained from this site and how helpful several folks here have been (some of them without even knowing it, just by virtue of what they've been willing to post here), I decided to go ahead.
I don't have the skills nor budget to make a top-notch rig like I'd like, but my son was/is happy and we had a good time. We have a couple more holiday events to attend and I'm sure he'll enjoy those as well.
I know there's so many things 'wrong' with our setups but we went with what we had and sometimes that's just ok. Some we knew beforehand and simply couldn't do any better given our situation, some we learned after fitting etc....so be it.
I'm sure a better craftsman and more time would've achieved better results but again, we had fun.
So, thanks again to the many members here. This is a great site with a wealth of information available.
