THIS IS THE ONE I'M DOING! Love it. Maybe not enough to build it....maybe this is the one that stays shrink wrapped in the box. But, probably not. right place, "right" time build. Will be glued to this thread for pre-order intel.

The peroxide method is tried and true. If it hasn't been mentioned, just make sure to rinse/soak the parts after really well. Might want to pay particular attention to blind holes, etc. When going into the peroxide bath, you can drive the air bubbles out with a toothpick or similar. Same with the ri...
