Default My New Rig: One Night Stand

To prove how easy it is to build a 2.2, I wanted to try and build a complete scale rig in one day(night). One that looks really cool and scale...but it also had to perform as well as many that are being built here! I said that I'd never build one....but I did.....just to prove that building a 2.2 is for wimps!!!!!!!!
It's done! It's awesome looking! It performs like a champ....well.........for a stupid little 2.2! and yes.....I did it in one night!!!!!!
Too bad you friggin small scale homos have to wait a while longer before I can post photos, cause you'll want to copy everything I did!!!

One day?

It usually takes you longer than a day to email all of us asking silly build questions.

I can't wait to see this thing. You use cardboard for the frame?

Let me guess:

Pick up screw, start stopwatch, drive screw, stop stopwatch.

Pick up link mark, start cutting, start stopwatch, cut link, stop stopwatch.
