Google Sketchup shenanigans continue unabated! The model has come a long way since the last post. I will hopefully be modeling the actual hand soon.

I finally got the first steel delivery! That's a bundle of 20-foot material on the forklift, and a stack of 40-foot material in the foreground.... (yes, 40 feet! Twice as long as what's on the lift!)

I must say that although life in rural New Mexico really does kick ass over life in LA in most ways... getting one's hands on materials is definitely NOT one of those ways. This material was delivered a day late, and some other things I'm still waiting for are going to be several days late!!

Oh well, at least I don't have any neighbors to complain about noise!

Actual fabrication to begin this afternoon!
