I HEAR you man... nothing ever goes like I plan - always seems to be quite the opposite, or something from left field, etc. BUMMER

I am on the edge of my seat! Can't wait to see what comes out of sean's workshop.

Be sure to hollow out the body a lot for electronics. ;)

*bows down* to sean Cylon-at-arms!

You have so many cool projects going on - wow! I have a table saw and band saw... too bad you are stuck in that near tropical Florida! :P

That 'nuRifle' would ROCK as a real prop. But make sure you can hold it with hockey gloves on ;)

I'd like the way they'd plan to modernize the classic rifle.

Sadly, it wasn't used for the new series, but it would be great to see it as real prop indeed...

Good luck with the pistol build, by the way. Hope the photos I've sent will help. :wink:

That is a very cool concept drawing. I haven't noticed it in the past. It sure does have a true touch of the original to it. A great photo.
