Eric this is a tremendous resource you've made
I'm currently struggling with a 2ft 'mech' of sorts and instructions like
these are really few and far between. Even if people don't make the LB model
there is a mountain of information you've included, just the various
assembly solutions. It's probably the rare freak who has enough of one
colour to make one of these but you've got a rainbow ROTFL. Congrats on
completing it
cheers, Joseph
