This morning was a crazy emotional roller coaster ride…
The most obvious was getting much stronger magnets, but that would take more time and slow everything further.This was still not enough, even on the lighter gun (above). So I spent nearly two hours trying to come up with solutions.

I could also make a fancy locking mechanism. Or hollow out the guns, making them lighter. etc etc. -_-
But then a simple solution came to me…
FRICTION FOR THE FRICTION THRONE!!!
The joint fit perfectly together, and I can even shake the about with them separating! 😀
Only downside is that the guns are slightly different, so can’t change sides.
So now I’m finally ready to do last assembly, and base coat this big ass model! 🙂
It’s always amazing what solutions come up to these hobby problems!
You have my admiration for taking on such a huge model too.
Please keep the progress reports coming! 😀

Thank you 🙂
It has proven to be a bigger project than I thought. Too bad I’m not going to be painting it, that’s the best part 🙂
