Looking AWESOME Piet! You must have access to a real machine shop. (envy, envy, envy)

So, how long is the Type II going to end up? While CNC deck looks quie nice we need something to compare for scale.

In my best Homer Simpson voice "Mmmm, CNC mill awgh" :drool :drool

Not done by yours truly...... programing a CNC is not my thing .

This deck is custom made for me .

I had it done by Modellbau Wikinger of Germany.
