I remember the great looking real nice lady that sat on the wing while we worked. Tring to act cool as I always do all that I could say to myself was don't screw up don't screw up. Got lucky no problems with my operating skills but no phone number.

That's awesome. You've got quite a collection of wall art going now don't you? There was a video on the internet recently where someone did a cut away radial that they powered with a electric motor to rotate. That's cool on it's own, but have you thought about motorizing yours?

This one has no internals. But I do have another motor that is 100% complete that I may do something with.

Here's the video.

I'd sit there in my recliner gazing at that all the time. (I do that with my stupid 3d printer at my office)
