Ah, like I said, it's collecting dust in my basement. I can tell you this much. It isn't cheap and considering I never really did anything with it, probably wasn't a good investment. I used to be a HUGE fan of G1 Transformers and it was mainly purchased with that kind of thing in mind. The problem with these is that they do usually do any sort of undercutting so you've got to plan it out pretty good or have a lathe attachment which is even more expensive. And by expensive, I don't mean a few hundred, I mean get ready to spend in the thousands for a crappy one and you need a steel antivibration table mounted into the ground to reduce play. If you're interested in this sort of thing, best person to talk to is a local machinist.

It's really easy to get too ADD about this kind of stuff and dream big and before you know it, you've bitten off more than you could chew.

Most of my custom work for MU is hand sculpted. I have a big passion for art. I do plan on posting some pics of my collection at some point, though. Stay tuned for that. LOL.
