I think with that size of a model, it's fairly easy. With a model as compact
as your crane, I'm sure it would have been a lot more difficult. It does
take a bit of room to accommodate panels, and they all must retain a little
structural integrity on their own (or else they'll disentegrate when you
pull 'em off :-)

Having two models going is an excellent solution! (provide you have enough
parts!) My solution (at the time) would have been to go look at my pictures
for guidance, however that may not have been enough to help.

Perhaps. I'm tired of dealing with it right now, I guess you know how that
feels. I think in the future, maybe several months down the road, I might
revisit it.
