I agree. This has got to be the most advanced build in the competition.

I'll have to get my skates on.

that's two sides done...so I wonder what's going to happen on the sides that have not been clad yet?.

That sounds like a story line from Play School. Through the round window you can see a Volcano :D :D 

Seriously though great work Giles.  Looking forward to seeing this progress.

How are you going to make it smoke?

Left bare to provide the cat with a scratching post.
Cat will obviously ignore it and sharpen its claws on the wrong side.

Hi guys...well I have managed to finish the cladding !!

BUT I now have a problem with photobucket - first time in three years - all my new photos are coming out with a very strong red hue...basically you cant see anything but shadow. Hopefully this will get sorted out soon and you can see the progress  >:(

Off to watch the rugby - hope the red hue is not an ominous sign... ???

This sounds exactly like watching an erupting volcano from close. Thanks to Photobucket, you'll be able to save on LEDs and smoke emitters for your build.
