"Ye Old Plumbob test" CH750

This thing was off at first and I could not figure out what was going on, until I realized one of horses had a messed up leg!! I had leveled the fuse off during the build and did not bother to recheck it! What a panic it is to see the PlumbBob off by about 3/4 of an inch!! Can you say PANIC MODE!!!

Nice Work.

Yeah I don't think it's much of an issue with the kitbuilds with all the pre drilled holes. I'm guessing It would be more of a problem with the scratch builds since not all the holes would be so perfectly aligned. I just wanted to make sure, it's a nice relief to know everything is ligned up! :D

That would have SUCKED to have a big mistake like that.  Thank God you were still square after fixing the saw horse.
