[USER=4233]BudaFett[/USER] Thank you for the kind words! I appreciate it!

I do have a small update as far as that is concerned, I finished up the muzzle today. I started with circles the size of the muzzle, glued them together, and then drilled a 1 inch hole for the bore.

I sanded it down to the approximate shape, and then I took a page out of [USER=13129]Irongladiator[/USER]'s book by adding metal on the end so I could have a magnetic orange tip. I used 3/4" conduit locknuts, they go on the outside of conduit so the inner circle is closer to an inch. I used my bench grinder to take off the wings, glued it to the end of my piece, and dremeled and sanded it the rest of the way.

I then glued it to a piece of 1mm sintra the size of the outside of the pipe, then glued that to a piece of 3mm sintra sized to fit in the pipe. I figured this would give the glue something to hold onto.

That's it for now, I plan to move on to the T-rails tomorrow!
