Absolutely amazing build Doc. I hope to one day be able to admire it in person (perhaps IMM 2023?). You should be very proud of what you've made.
Of course I know what a dipstick is, you get called something often enough you look it up!

I have to keep going back to page 1 and 2 to remind myself how this all started........ A damaged, waterlogged shell partially filled with dried hard mud!
It isd a work of art Doc. Your Broadspeed avatar has been my screen saver for the past 4 months
