Thank you for the welcome. I have watched that video several time and it is an impressive build, but does not show the construction techniques. Did you make a photo log of the build for reference? I see that blue foam was used rather than sticks.
As I try reading thru the instructions, they leave many questions. The write up is sketchy and not clear as to what is being described. For this reason, I need to seek out the help of experienced builders. I have contacted my local EEA chapter about joining.
My other question is about a better forum platform for discussion? This message board is from last century. Even a Facebook page would be an improvement to communication. Has anyone suggested this before? Is there an interest in a more interactive forum? Curious minds want to know.

As such, I want to build everything to spec. I am having a tough time with the build instructions. I feel as though they were written in German and run thru google translate.
