Amazing work master!

I was wondering why you had used those full red legs... untill I realized they are masked! :-[  That must be a very "detailed" task.

Wow! That's a lot of work, but very effective!

thanks Tahra ;) and GrahamB....masking is also very risky if there's any leaks....happens sometimes(especially when spraying more than 1  :P...carelessness comes in), but luckily not this time

As someone who has the fine motor skills of a particularly uncoordinated toddler, I just can't fathom how you are able to do that! Great job!
