Weird is good!  Many thanks Jon...they are fun to do.   When I set out to do
this one, I wanted it to look a little different from the other speeders
I've done.  As a result, I made the central beam (using the seed part) to be
the ground parallel portion with the cockpit and chome foil on angle.  No
real form-function explanation for it.....basically a reversal of the
cockpit with angled engine/wing configuration (e.g Klingon Bird of Prey).

I think the Seed Part is a perfect name...depicts what happened for me -
grew from the element to model.

.Space just rocks.

Cheers,

How does this fly?  Does the cockpit lean like that or does it level out
with the other portions of the craft angled down?

Great to see the first use of that part.  I'm going to try something with it
soon as well.  So is "Seed Part" a good name?
