Howdy!! 3D hope all I well ....Here is my plan....I just received in the mail a 3/8 thick sheet of pvc to give me carving freedom. you see those lines on the bug butt....lol well I will draw the basic outline of each leg then carve the to spec..I will then cut notches in the body going towards the front of the car.i will then slide each leg in position then glue them in. It's kinda of like putting a 3D puzzle together.....I cant wait to see your 3D version to see how close we are....and once again sign me up for one so I can compare...I think we both can get this thing together.
