I've got one i've been futzing with for a lot of years. It is a fairly complicated build, no lie. Only tip i can give is , watch the film , there are a wealth of reference photos available on google. The kit i have needed a lot of cleanup if i recall and the resin seemed rather brittle, take your time and be careful.

Actually you might be able to help me out, i somehow lost the gauge surround for the control panel. The piece that houses all the readouts. Looking for someone with either a spare or who can make a little mold of that piece so i can actually finish mine. hopefully that question is allowed here, if not i apologize
