Thank you!

The design process isn’t a simple story but I’d say about 4-6 months off and on? I had the original idea as a pencil sketch in May of last year but held off on a lot of the digital design work until the Deadpool & Wolverine movie released in late July; I ended up changing the type of handgun to better fit this film. I worked on the digital files off and on until late October when I hit financial hardship and held off on ordering parts until early December. After parts arrived in mid-February, I ran into a few issues during assembly that were all cleaned up by early March. Financial hardship returned and it’s tedious to make finalized instructions so I’m only now getting these posted.

The build probably takes several hours. The frame in particular seems uniform but requires close attention while building. Since I had to make changes to both the design and assembly process while building (including figuring out how to avoid it falling over and shattering repeatedly!), my build experience isn’t typical. It also helps if you sort your pieces first.
