    You missed two vital parts of this build.
    1. Never wear actual shoes for building rotaries, Crocs or Sandals only
    2. The torque sequence tattoo on your wrist!

    Step 1: buy rotary
    Step 2: blame Alex seals and leave it alone
    Step 3: go to car events and tell everyone you are building 4rotor

    Great video Vargus. I just have one small request, could you make a super in-depth assembly video of the rotary with, the little inside tricks to the tear-down, to assembling the rotors and such. I think a great in-depth 3 part video that would be, the end all be all video, that would teach us how to build these great "brap, brap" machines.
