Corsair’s 2019 year in review.

Recommended Posts

     Hello Everyone... Welcome to my 2019 Build yearbook. My busiest year since i was a teenager. I make it 30 builds as of right now which may increase by one if i can finish another build that is underway. I have included WIP links where there is one. Some were built offline with no build logs. I hope they meet your expectations and if needed will add a few more RFI links if needed.

Hi Dennis,

Crikey, you have been busy. I don't venture into the wingy section very often so things 'slip under the radar' See what I did there? You've produced some little and not so little beauties though.

 

Have a great Christmas and new year.

Great collection there Dennis..

 

How you you become so prolific yet still retain the quality?

I thank you for the compliment. I try to do my best with each build, most I'm happy with a few I'm not. I also have an abundance of time being disabled so i spend most time building or researching. Honestly I don't know if I will ever match the # of builds here again. I just got on a roll this year and this is what i wound up with.

Love that Bolo. I'm going to have to get one of those now I've seen how good it can look.

Its a good kit with few issues, i rubbed mine down with 1000 grit before starting as it had a slightly pebbly surface. But other than that not much to think of. Read the WIP Log as there were good links and info in there. 
 

Many thanks to all for the compliments.

I purposefully blocked corsair’s out. i intend to build a few this coming year, as Im hosting the Corsair group build. I plan on at least 2-3 just in the build. And possibly 2-3 more throughout the year.
