I just heard back from Mark.

Here's a brief section of his exact words.

"I don't currently have any info about the build. I should have made a step by step summary, but never did.
I didn't have blueprints as I was building. Just trial and error. I know you're familiar with the trial and error method as well!"


I think Mark is a great example of somebody who can just simply put in both the mental and physical work to make something happen. We need more people like him keeping up their good work.

I've seen that news video probably a dozen times on YouTube. Very impressive, and I'd love to know more about it as well.

Perhaps a few shots without the body? I'm sure we would all appreciate it!
