Not entirely, and yes it has been a full bottom out, regardless its easier that way

I already PM'd klean, but just so others know where Im coming from with the button head screws. I opted to use the button head screws to avoid ripping the heads right off the bolts if and when they are bottomed out. A mushed button head screw is still better than a hex head that has torn right off. I've had a bit of experience removing these types of fasteners with some damage to the hex drive and usually you can get away with using a drill bit to clean up the opening of the hex drive and tapping an allen key into the drive. If this fails, a vise grip will usually do the trick but it will chew up the fastener a bit.

Side pieces are still coming very soon, I've just been busy.

Already had some really nice copliments about it.

I'm really, really looking forward to the side pieces.
Hopefully they will be in a groupbuy as well.
