    Great comment, @theluthier Thank You. I love that series. Oh and speaking of the “little details” I had a question:

    I didn’t forget to add the Zerk fittings yet. I put them off until the next assignment intentionally. I have one already made now I just need to replicate and add them everywhere.

    Do you suggest adding the “bolt hole” wherever these Zerk fittings are going to be placed? It will slow things down on my assembly workflow and these “little details” may not be seen from afar, but on the flip side they will make it more believable. Not sure if we are in the “selling fake” or “selling real even when no one can see it” workflow.

    Perhaps you can take a quick minute to just share this in the next stream. The mechanical engineer in me wants to add the bolt holes everywhere but the artist in me says a common viewer perspective will most likely not be focusing on the details behind the bolt holes for Zerk fittings when there is so much more to appreciate in our DOG
