Awesome. I just went through it all.
Now I need to stack some abalone.

An incredible build, thanks for the link.

I'd love to be able to do something like that abalone ... even for simple scales

 

[BrandantR]

What an incredible build. I thoroughly enjoyed the tutorial. Thanks for posting it and for posting the link.

 

[Mark Knapp]

Thanks everybody, you are welcomed.

(possibly silly) Question about the abalone....how do you get the to stack flat? Is it just that you cut small enough pieces?

 

[Mark Knapp]

I cut all the pieces from the same spot on the shell and nest them. No need to be flat.

That is absolutely awesome!!!!
