Oh crud on a stick!! I just picked up a dog sabre which I would love to work on under a group build's umbrella, but there's no way I'll finish in two weeks, especially with a lot of work travel coming up.

Why am I sharing this? To tell you guys that I find your GB exciting.

Carry on.

DNF is good, even if you finish outside the bounds of this GB we will see an interesting build

Build it. You might get it finished in time.
On second thoughts, let's not go to Camelot. It is a silly place!

I'm leaving for four days of field work, tomorrow morning, then coming back for a few days, and then flying out to Vancouver for a conference on the 30th. That leaves me with about five evenings of modeling. :)

Its been fun watching you all work on your projects though. I've been lurking from the start.
