I cheesed everything because I wanted to experiment with different types of lightening.

3/16 rivets

Thanks, I took me about two weeks to do(but I didnt spend all of the two weeks on it, I had to go school some of that time)
Ya, I am using Inventor because thats what we learned at school, but I'm going to try to learn Solidworks when I go to college next fall.
