    Great vid, enjoyed it. My thought when you asked was, how about a plastic Balrog model comparison.?
    Only because iv always fancied a plastic Balrog but seems very dear for a handful of parts.
    You might convince me the end result is worth it, though, going on how well your metal one turned out.
    Cracking stuff, I'll look out for your next one.
