The same criticisms about the lightening pattern still apply.
Yea the belly pan won't be that fun but it's almost a necessity with me only having 2inches where I can mount gussets. If I got rid of the versa blocks I could get away without it but I don't think I want to do that. I am exploring the possibility of custom versablocks and if I did that I could size them such that I could get a gusset underneath

I changed up the lightening pattern on the bottom and I am still learning how to get the other one to work. Chak made it look good (I gave him the plate file) but when I tried to do what he did I broke Solidworks and he was sleeping.
