ive been wanting to post pix for so long, so i finally took some with my craptastic blackberry and emailed them to myself :)

I see you got on the PrimoFlex tip!
I can't get over how TOUGH that kit looks!
8/10
Can't wait to see it finished!
that tubing you see there in the pix is actually my original tubing which is like 3yrs old . i thought about it at the time when i first assembled my rig and it turned out my thoughts were correct. thankfully i purchased 10ft and have been able to use it sparingly :)
i didnt post my rig to get votes i just wanted to share my hobby with everyone else and hopefully help other hobbyists as well :)
But this..... is a SUPERB build!
great work, well done!
