This is not a recreation, but do you all think that it is accurate?

Yes, but the supports are a bit strange. They're twisting a bit.

If you could show me what you mean, as in by like actual pics of the type of support. But right now, redoing the supports would basically be redoing the entire drop.

It looks beautiful, as close as you're ever going to get.

Thanks man.

Dude, that is amazing. I think the horizontal box could be higher, but it's no big deal at all. Great job.

It is great! But I would make the crest just a tad smaller like ^ said. But otherwise, good job!

i think it's just right, because the crest on MF is very, very close to the size of the pull-out, keep it.
