Well guys I intended to finish the main part of the AP before the new year but I missed the deadline :(
So here is an update on what I have accomplished this year.

Here you see the bottom mounting bases for the legs.

And here are the same parts painted

And finally here are the mounting bases in place.

Still working on the signs they are almost finished awaiting the delivery of a new printer so the colors will be good when printed.

That's all for now I am almost ready to tackle the bottom half it will be interesting and challenging.

Guys:

Sorry for the lack of updates lately the cold weather has me down fighting a cold.
May not be able to make any progress until it warms up some.

Well it's been awhile since I worked on this last mostly due to weather and playing Fallout 4.
I got Fallout 4 finished so now I can get back on track.
Here is a few shots of the AP with the signs attached that's all I have for now.

Ok here is the main big sign and I chose to put it here they moved that sign all over the place in the show.
The "Danger Keep Away" sign stayed in the same place throughout the series.

Image

Image

Check out the "Keep Off sign" I even put the rivets that held the sign onto the mounting brackets.
Image

Now I have the hand holds to make and attach for the bottom outside sections and touch up some paint in some areas after that the main part of the AP will be complete.
Please leave me some feedback as that keeps me going the whole time I was not posting I got many views but no comments. I check this forum daily and you don't know how much I need to hear from you.

Thanks
Charles

Thanks man it is good to be back working on the AP.
I may not post every week as the bottom portion is still being worked out there are a few problems I have not figured out how to make but it most likely will be worked out through trial and error .
