Boy that got a lot of backing and updates can't be seen unless you backed it.

Curious on their progress

There are a couple of beast owners that have them coming in. I think there is only one person known to have theirs built and operational. I just hear it is "great".

I really think one can be made cheaper. Been working on a CAD model in my head since I saw it. looking at how a Beast could be changed or a new one built to be more in line to the AON. I really don't need the heated chamber at the moment, but the independent heads... hmm.

Currently, guesstimating $200-$300 in braces for the frame. $400-$800 in extruded aluminum beams for the frame. Just need linear bearings, Acme screws and nuts, and misc hardware to bolt things together. Thinking maybe $2K and change, or there about. Difficult part is the heads.
