Wow Josh! This is looking super good! Are you going to make a hinged door so you can get at stuff without taking it totally apart?

I plan on getting access through the back. Unscrewing the back of the torso would also open up thr back of the torso riser.

Josh,

It look awesome....

Yes it is fiberglassed , its difficult to explain but the back half of the torso will also be attatched to the back of the riser . I will be able to unscrew the back half and it comes off to expose everything. I planned on using all Allen screws. Anyways I will do some more work today.

I spot epoxied the corners to hold the top in place. I'm letting it cure now but it usually takes about 30 minutes for this 5 minute epoxy lol.

I want these pieces to sandwich together as flush as possible. To do this I cut knotches so the ply would recess into the plastic.

While the other piece is curing I trimmed the wood so that it flushes into the bottom of the base. In a few minutes I will tape off the edges and epoxy the edges from the inside.
