Kenn,
Welcome back! And what a treat you’ve bestowed on us! I really like the Oakland.
I checked out the pictures yesterday afternoon and was impressed with the
various “radical” parts usage -- the traditional cannon bases, the stair, etc --
and the overall form is unique. I too would like to see this in person because

impressive. What I might suggest is following some advice of JHK (Thanks John!

suggested in this post and I was quite satisfied with the results:

details soon. Take care and build well.
