Not enough time in a day.
 
This is super cool! Very nice stance, and I gotta give you props for building everything yourself! One day I hope to build frames like this!
 
Thanks Streetrod, I really enjoy machining and fabricating thing from scratch.
 
Thanks for the complement on my build Toby4130, I hope it turns out as good as I can see it in my head.
 
Got to work on it today, started by removing the anodizing with Easy Off.
