    One of the legs of the base has been detailed up. The radius on the end was completely wrong so it was reprofiled using tube. The details on the top were redone as they were very soft. Rivet detail was then added.

          How did you manage all those rivets ? I have gone cross-eyed just looking at the photos.

              Looks great Paul.

              How many rivets are there? 😂
